You're right, I just asked my vet neighbor, he will ferry us.
I'd try again this morning but it's minus 16f.
Dont know what we will do after I get home, might need to buy a second car.

So I got my surgery after renting a car, got home and my neighbor installed the coil I bought previous to the trip. Car runs great now.
It was the middle cyl.
