Cool, thanks Mike. The car wont be there until Friday unfortunately. Thats the earliest time I could get out of the office to conduct the towing to the storage area.

I'm looking for codes as a first pass at getting the info I need - what needs to be replaced. I don't expect the diagnostic stuff to show everything thats broken - certainly I expect a number of mechanical things to need replacing that the equipment may not be programmed to find. Right now my time is limited to one hour here and there, with the first hour being devoted to finding out as much about the engine, electrical and fuel systems as possible, for an eventual fix. After that, a more comprehensive crawl over the car will reveal more, but I won't have time for that for a few more weeks. Ideally, the issues that simply prevent the engine from running, are what I need first.

I welcome anyone willing to help since I'm a complete newbie at auto mechanics. Unfortunately I can't devote the time I need to devote, right now. After we settle this house selling crap (1-3 months) I'll then be able to jump into it more often.

Thanks for jumping in Mike. I appreciate it.
