Self Healing Cars

Our Tracker healed himself over the summer! He must enjoy long periods of rest. About a week before we left CZM  last April, the he was coughing, sputtering, and stalling even while were driving down the street. It was way too close to our departure to do much with it, so we stored it at Chuck & Moni's house for the summer. They filled it with gas and fuel stabilizer, disconnected the battery and covered it. Since they are pretty much on the same summer/winter schedule that we are, they thankfully stored it for us.Chuck said when they returned to the island, a few weeks before us, he connected the battery and it started right up. They drove it some and filled the tank. After a time or two, it purred like a kitten. Just like the way it did when
our mechanic friend Bob had it working in CO. As Bob said "God bless self-healing cars". Amen.
