about 3 weeks ago, the van starting acting up. on my way to an appointment, it starts lurching, and then didn't want to shift. turns out the transmission fluid was gone. at the moment, it's parked in the driveway until we can get it looked at. we're hoping the transmission wasn't permanently damaged.
thankfully, we had a car parked at the house in sugar. it needed a new battery, and the license renewed. the only downside is we can't all legally fit.
a week ago, the car started acting up. it was acting like it was running out of gas, but the gauge read 3/8 of a tank. we changed the spark plugs, and hoses, and thought that was it. yesterday, something started knocking around in back when i was stopping, and the heat died. last night, it wouldn't start.
as of right now, the consensus is that it's the fuel filter. but until they actually look, they won't know for sure.

UPDATE: (7:00p) it's not the fuel filter.
UPDATE 2: (8:30p) they put it on the computer, and diagnosis is coils.
