Oh -- and also, the mechanic seemed a little frustrated with the plastic fuel line? He was ranting about a clamp or something causing a piece of plastic mashing (causing a crack) which caused the fuel to start leaking after he replaced the fuel pump (see my previous comment about the car wreaking of gas above). The dealer is obviously shaky about the "repair" to my problem -- they do NOT seem real confident that they've completely solved this issue. I don't think they have either...just a feeling
So in short -- YES I did have fuel pressure problems. They replaced the fuel pump originally because they said I was losing fuel pressure when the car just sat.
