Default I did not return to this thread to update it...

But I just noticed it thanks to HIQ. Please, anyone who is (foolishly) considering a WCC, check out my post in the consumer forum.. it explains the rest of the story pretty well. My motor WAS going south with bad bearings and I discovered this the same day I made my last post on this thread. My basic cost just to fix that is going to be at least $2800 This is the best price I found and believe it or not it includes everything needed, and a dyno run and a warranty.. which is more than can be said for WCC/Vern Redel, who has completely renigged on the written 1 year warranty he gave me. In fact he will not even respond to my registered letter or about 8 e-mails. Total price to fix all the errors/flaws in this "turnkey" car are approaching $7500 to $8,000... and this does NOT include replacing the silly permeable gas can that Vern calls a "fuel cell". No way am keeping this very scary thing in my trunk with a BATTERY and a 600 watt amp and (2) CD changers! Fuelsafe can look forward to my business as soon as I get her back on the road.
