And I thought my car was running good...

I brought my car into the shop yesterday, because lately it has been starting hard. I knew it had something to do with the carb. Well I go to talk to them today, and it turns out it is a little more than the carb My ses light has be coming on and throwing a code 53 (something about a bad egr controler) as it turns out, the egr controller is shot, the O2 sensor is shot, and the choke pull off is shot. I need these three things fixed. I guess my car was running so rich, some gas was getting into the crankcase. Once this gets fixed it should pay for itself in the gas I save! And here I thought my car always was running good
