Car repairs done!

A few months ago, our 1999 Ford Taurus started running rough.  Initially, I thought of spark plugs and engine tune-up.  We did a few things, got it running slightly better, but for the last couple months it has still wanted to die whenever it idles, with the exception of a cold-start, when it would rev the engine to about 3k rpm for a minute or two.  I began to suspect a vacuum leak…

Yesterday we dropped it off at Red Rock Automotive.  Today, they looked at it, found two vacuum leaks, one of which needed a hose clamp.  Total damages, around $67.00.

Glad it’s done!  Wish we’d taken it in sooner!  ;)
