Hi, I just bought this 94 mazda mx6/Mystere a week ago and after it came out of the garage it wasnt working. Dont know if the guy is sabotaging my car, but I cant trust him? I need to fix this problem myself.(And yeah if you were wondering what did I meant by not trusting him. He was constently telling to sell the car to him, cause it has to much problem, funny huh!)
