As soon as you said it died in the parking lot, I thought CPS!!!
Am I the only married man who can't imagine telling my wife to change her FF? LOL!!!!
Sounds you should have done it in the first place, lol!!!
I too believe you have a problem in the alt. I hope you didn't buy one of the Auto Zone specials, or other superstore equivelants. I hope you get it figured out.
