[s-cars] New S-6 Avant and a minor problem to diagnose

[Tom Green]

Let's see if you have heard this before, Randy.  Check for codes.  If  
none are present,
looking at the ignition is a good guess.  If you have codes, they  
will probably lead to
a boost leak---a hose split that may be hard to find visually.

If you need parts <www.fap99.com> usually has the best prices around.
