    The truth be told...Greg and I were initially thinking it was a faulty trailer harness. Greg unplugged the ground wire from the trailer harness and like magic the VX started and stayed running. I turned off the engine and restarted it 4 times and it started every time. Greg and I concluded that the issue was fixed. Lisa; however kept saying it was too good to be true that the first thing we tried on Saturday fixed the issue...She was 100% right. After Lisa and Greg left I took the VX for a test drive and it started blowing fuses again...that is until Greg suggested unplugging the "Fuel Evaporator Canister"...The rest is history.

    So Ms. Lisa...it is true...you definitely showed both of us

    Ollie the funny thing is, is my GUT was saying........that it wasn't fixed........trust the gut! Remember I wanted you to drive it? I now have a tad bit of understanding after watching Greg study wire diagram of our truck.
    Ask forgiveness, not permission.
