That's why I bought the Valet key, first, as a fail-safe measure, while my main expenditures are focused on fixing the fuel delivery system (the fuel pump went out, replaced it, went from lean codes to rich codes, started stumbling on turns).... Buying parts to re-do it all from scratch, including new tools.

It's not the best time of year for diagnostics/repairs, with five vehicles needing inspection from August-January, seasonal spending, property taxes in Jan., new glasses just now, new phone (bought outright from Amazon, for the wife), and me going to an out-of network ortho specialist next week, it all adds up. A new OEM key is way down my must-have list right now. I'm hoping that I can fix whatever might be wrong with the original key.
