I tow and left the car at KC auto shop @ Portland. That Guy spend almost 5h on my car, he said its maybe the computer box problem. He try to connect direct to starter and won't start eventhough starter runing

So the car is cranking but won't start?

Check the e-box fuses...see if FP is priming...search 'crank no start' threads using advanced/title search.

Also, I'd google KC auto shop and see what feedback it has gotten. Although 5 hours might be a reasonable time not to find your problem, it doesn't sound that reasonable. Ask him to check all connections--grounds, starter cable, battery connections--though you shouldn't have to ask him to do that.

GL...hth a little...and a morning bump for you!
