    Dunno what to think, opinions please!!

    Before I get upset over a deal I had let me ask the rest of the board their opinions. I thought I needed a coil pack for my car, had a miss past 10psi. So I bought a used one from a fellow member that was promised to be good. Recently I had bought a couple of new sensors and they had turned...

    Fuel Pump
