Hey shawn Hows it going Ive been to Ottawa many times as I used to set up displays at all your costco locations out there but man I was there 2 years ago in the winter and it was -40 there I couldnt beleive how cold it gets there.
I have a question for you, My fuel guage isnt working My car has 245,000 Km'* on it I know its the sending unit but would I be better to replace the whole pump with that many Km'* or should I just have the sending unit replaced. Im out of work and really tight for money and I would have too get someone to do it for me as Im not comfortable doing it.

really not a big deal. ive always done my own maintenance you have a vested interest in keeping your own money and the techs dont care if you break down on the side of the road at who knows what time or temp. they just suggest what ever will make them money, its like asking a salesman what they would like you to buy. but thinks its for the auto techs to rob you
