i bought an 88 tc from a friend about 3 months ago as a beater car to get back and forth to work for $300. well it needed a clutch. changed with a stock replacement well within 4hrs it fried. took it back and got a new one they exchanged it as a maufacurers defect. within the next few weeks i wound up changing a broken rocker arm, a head gasket, the turbo, and then another head gasket. then today after getting the head gasket done just last sunday, going to a friends house to help him drop a turbo motor in his notch mustang it dies, i start smelling burning wires. so i stop in a parking lot and look under the car, what i find is the fuel pump wires and rubber lines on fire! a take off sweatshirt and smother fire out, call friend to get his dads truck and pull it to his house, about a mile down the road, well before he gets the four cops, a fire truck and an abulance come flying into parking lot. dumb a** dot head mini mart clerk called 911. i open trunk and smoke srats coming out. tank is under trunk so its just smoke from the small fire i had i tell cop he pulls me away from car, and the the firemen rip hose from truck and soake entire trunk, the go inside drivers compartment rip bottem of back seat out and spray whole back of car. Well the trunk had my brand new MSD ignition box, and coil in it, which they didnt take out before, spraying trunk. then they take down my info and tell me there sending me a bill! I didnt call them, and didnt even want them to be there.
Anyone know of a nice big cliff in new jersey to push this thing off of?

wait a bill for what? did they use foam? Im a volunteer fire fighter and i work in jersey Id take them to court. it is a public service not like a ride in an ambulance. write it up as an insurance claim.

I would send them a bill for destroying the msd box, also the damage done to the back seat. In NY here they get you with a "surcharge", its just another way of the state getting your money. See what they say about that, and how much did they charge you ? You could tell them to send it to the mini mart too. Good luck, I know the govt. can suck a lot!!
