Fuel Pumps for Dummies.
Actually I should call this Fuel Pumps AND Dummies.
Pappa Bear, Idiot boy and Grandpa all told me it was the fuel pump. So I marched into the garage feeling confident and like noone was gonna take advantage of me.
The nice owner said he would call me in a bit with an estimate.
He calls.
$700 to replace the fuel pump (silence while I choke on my latte)
but if you want me to fix what is wrong with it I can do it for $375 and throw in an oil change.
HE HE HE he is a cute little man.
I am definately going back to him.

I mostly let my wife deal with mechanics. She knows more about cars than I do. (Did I just admit that?)

Audience Member: “What kind of car do you have?”
Rita Rudner: “I have a white car.”

Fuel pump? Is that like a thing that pumps kibble directly into your bowl whenever you want it? I need one of those!
