Looking for Mechanic in DMV area
 
Hey guys, I live in Columbia, MD and in desperate need of a mechanic to look at my car. I've been trying to get it to run for a while now and no luck! Long story short, the car came from Dave at Speed1 and was driving like a champ, sat for like 2 months and now won't start.... Please let me know if you or anyone you know is willing to take a look at my FD! Would prefer someone close, if not going to have to bite the bullet and pay to take the car back out to Dave.

Thanks in advance,

Steven

Found out about UPR in Mt Airy. Going to give them a try as its only 30 minutes from my house. This thread is now irrelevant. Sorry everyone.

Never heard of UPR.. When you say it won't start, what exactly is it doing (or not, as the case may be)...?

I'm in Crofton, I may be able to help..

Mike at UPR was able to get it to start. I believe a sensor was not making a clean contact. He deflooded it and got it running. Now I have an issue where my car will "die" at 5psi of boost. When I say die, I mean the car will lose all power, it won't shut off but it just completely loses power. He is stumped, says it might be a coil issue or computer issue.... Hope he can figure this one out.

Sounds a lot like the spark plug issue I had with a turbo car I used to own...
