94 Pathy Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 Just got done replacing the knock sensor on my Pathy. A couple days later the Pathy stalled & would start. Had it towed to a buddy's garage to have him look at things. I didn't have the time to look things over. Well, $800 later. New Cap & Rotor, wires & plugs, fuel pump, & 10' of wire from pump to harness, & a tune-up. That included labor also. Runs like a champ now. Just sucks all that happening right after doing all that work for the knock sensor & a month before my wedding that we are saving & paying for. Oh well, it's just money right? Just needed to vent. I know many of you are/have been there also. Keep wheeling! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nunya Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 Someone was thrown parts at it guessing... You didn't even get lube or a reach-around. Since you basicly listed a tune up then seperatl said "a tune up", what did they consider the "tune up"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Free lunch for the whole garage I'm guessing! $800 still sounds high, even if they *did* throw all those parts at it until it fixed the issue...

adamzan Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 Sounds like the sending unit wiring was corroded and they took a while to figure it out and then billed you for all that time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

94 Pathy Posted February 18, 2011 Author Share Posted February 18, 2011 I wish I would've been given a reach around! Shoot! At least I would've got something out of it. Oh well, chaulk it up to the experience. LIve & learn. If I would've had the time to do it myself, it would've been alot cheaper. It's just money right?
