1989 9000CD Turbo autotragic: In less than a year since the $400 job, the new one's dead. Mechanic thinks it can be waranteed, but what could cause this? He wonders if the oil dripping onto/into it might be shorting it out. Where could the oil be likely coming from if this is the case? Oil level sensor? Fill tube? This is causing marital difficulties, as I just spent $800 on new heater core, blower, and control. Tom Trueb Delphi, IN.
