He's still stuck.  Hoping that "bumping" this might help us locate somebody in his area....doesn't have to be real close, he'll get it to whoever can help.

Thanks PhatHeadDonnie.  The guy currently helping him (without any luck over the extended period he's had the car) is convinced it's not getting spark.  SPI, yes.  I've got him sending me the extended list of things they have thrown at the car, hoping I can help him over the phone, but would really like to hook him up with somebody in person.

Got a buddy who's stumped on his 1994 Mini.  Can't get her to start.  Was hoping there might be somebody in the area who could help him?
