yogi- Posted March 11, 2008 Posted March 11, 2008 Could be a faulty ignition or a solonoid playing up somewhere
col_2 Posted March 11, 2008 Posted March 11, 2008 (edited) it could be the spark plug stuffed up your exhaust keeping it running & the beeping could be a text message lol. Edited March 11, 2008 by col_2
