Max,
I agree, I would keep driving it - especially after that sort of estimate! I
drove my old 1989 Saab with the engine light going on and off for no
traceable reason until my mechanic eventually found a fault code that pointed
to a
faulty air mass sensor. $125 later, I was back in business! If it really is
the
Geo's computer (and not some faulty sensor) your best bet is probably a junk
yard. Maybe a second opinion would be a good idea too.
Good luck!

To be fair, the service manager is now looking for aftermarket or used parts
-- he realizes it is ridiculous to expect someone to put a $1200 part into a
$1500 car. The screwy thing is, it was driving fine -- I should have just
ignored the light, I guess. But how was I to know?
