Might be the fuel pump. Glad you made it home safely. I've learned to never travel without my cell phone. Kudos to the cops who helped you out. Don.

The artform is finding the cable. The hot day and 100 degree temps did not help your situation. Glad to read that you made it home. Best Wishes In a message dated 5/17/2013 5:28:24 P.M.

I know it had a 1/4 tank and it was not over heating. I was 4 miles from home, thinking of driving home in my chair, but it was over 100 outside. My mother was driving, and she could not walk that far. Of all days I did not bring my phone. We were still part in the street, in a bike lane. We saw a garage of some kind around the corner so I was about to get out when a cop pulled up. She was going to call my insurance road side service when a 2nd cop pulled up. They thought maybe after the tow truck took my van, thy could drive my mother and follow me. There is a wheelchair taxi around here, but often long wait times. Then the 2nd cop says, I can just push you home. Luckily it was a mostly a straight road home. So the first cop got in my van to steer and the 2nd cop pushed my van from his car (He had a nice padded push bar on the front of his car.) > >Bad week, earlier this week the #%$#@# cat peed on top of my laptop and it fried it up. Totally dead. Do you know if I can take out the hard drive and get something to plug it into a USB of a new computer? > >Thanks, >Greg >
