Uber pissed off!!!!!

So, the tow truck just pulled away. I was on my way to the fest, got as far as Wilmington and the 'vert took a sh_it. I think the fuel pump died, but, of course I can't find my fuel pressure guage to find out for sure. So, I'm gonna' start pouring beer down my throat and wait 'til next year, (again!!!). Lemme' see: last year was my wife's surgery, year before was mine, year before that was moving, and the year before that was my 92 y/o aunt took a spill and I spent the day in the ER. So, some day, I just might make it. If you'd like, Denny, take my entry fee and give it to your missus for her worthy cause.
BTW, how do I check for injector pulse without the special tester they show in the service manual? TIA

If it makes you feel any better my car took a **** on the way home. We left it in LaSalle. I think the engine finally spun the mains. 95 MPH for a long period of time and 263,194 miles kind of wore on the ol' man. Good luck brother.

Thanks. Considering, I have to do this stuff by myself, I'll need it. I'm REALLY not looking forward to fritzin' with the exhaust system!
