until his Buick stopped running. Turns out the car blew a hose, drove it until it stopped. Could not get it restarted. Towed to repair shop. Reconnected the hose. Now he is back in action.
He overheated so badly that he took out the temp sending unit. I replaced the unit. Then had to teach him how to read the gauge.
He is a loyal GM owner. He was ready to go to Ford because of this incident. I can't imagine building a car in today's, "loyal until it fails" environment.
