"Check engine light is on. (for several years, paid mechanic to fix it $1300, but came back ON after a couple of months.) "
Wow, $1,300 for a check engine light related problem? I hope you inspected the bad parts or got a second opinion before paying that much for a fix. I would never hand over that kind of cash for one problem and not be well informed as to what the issue was. Apparently they had no idea what they were doing, or your light would not have come back on so quickly. I would have gone right back where you got it fixed for sure, and made them fix it again for nothing more.
