    Carrie, I'm sure that someone on here, nearby you, will be able to help you out.

    I take it that you've already determined the engine is shot?

    I have a great running 200 in my Maveick that I could give you, but I live in Arizona, and I still need to drive mine a few more times, before I take my motor out for restoration...so that won't work.

    Any others on here that can chime in?

    That is what is SOOOO AWESOME about this forum. There is always someone there to step up and help another member that is in need. I guarantee that you aren't going to find this same helpful, generous, demeanor on a Mustang or Camaro Forum.
