Let it sit for a while and she would start and run for a while--then shut d=
own again. I tried many fixes which I will list below. Several times after=
the fixes she went for miles and miles and I thought I had "fixed" it. Nop=
e-----yesterday----it was AAA tow time once again (3 times this year). =20
