Hmmmmm
Recently on the Mendo list I was asking about this....well about computer
controlled petrol engines and their reliability. I mentioned how I had seen
sensors and stuff fail when I was still working in a shop and leave people
stranded. "Ohhhh no, never stranded, you can always limp home" I was told.
Sorry this happened to ya Winn, but glad to know I have been vindicated.
Just say no to computerised engine controls.
