Isn't it a coincidence that both the timing is bad and the fuel pump fails?

How could the dealer tell if the timing was off if the car didn't even start when it got there? It has to be towed to the dealer.

duragezic, that sucks. The thing with mine was the mechanic was the one driving the car when it broke down. This happened while I was still at the shop. I assume they didn't even test drive the car after replacing the fuel pump.

But when they did the diagnostic, shouldn't they have found out about the other problems? It's not like the diagnostics is free. It's only free if you decide to have them fix your car. I probably wouldn't had fixed the car had I known it was giogn to cost that much.

The dealer told me the timing was off 120 degrees, but he was unsure what caused the timing to be off. He said he would have to remove areas of the timing belt to find out exactly what was causing this timing to be off, which would cost about $230.

I think the fuel pump was only one of the problems, but the mechanic didn't find out the other problems when they did the diagnostics.

My 1993 Toyota Camry with 250k miles just died on me recently (it wouldn't start). I took it in to TiresPlus and after the diagnostics, the mechanic said the fuel pump needed to be replaced, so I paid the $400 to get it replaced. When I went to pick up the car today, I noticed the engine...

i guess this leads to my second question, did you have wife and kids prior starting college or during college? and for those who had kids during college, why?

have you said goodbye to your social life yet?

aren't there less classes to attend for masters and phds? attending classes take up majority of the day already.

How do you do it? :confused:
