Guy down the road has one, really clean, 62K miles. 3.8 V6 Auto obviously. Said it died while driving down the highway, pushed it to exit gas station and towed it home. Has other cars so just parked it. Says he wants it gone, not gonna put any money into it. Said I can tow it home for $200 clear title in hand.
I'd be a fool to pass that up as I could sell the rims/tires and aftermarket stereo for $200 and scrap/part out the car worst comes to worst. My question is, what are the chances it was just a fuel pump or alternator or something easy like that? I am going tomorrow AM with the truck to look it all over more closely. What can I check, look for while I'm there? Obviously the trans fluid and oil but what fuses/relays should I inspect? Or should I just buy it and do my troubleshooting at home???
