Attention Iowa Ferrari know it alls....

Well, it happened. My Ferrari f355 decided to die on me last night. I am not sure what happened but the battery and lights all turn on. Oil in the system, plenty of full, etc.

I need someone who is a fellow owner and mechanic to come over and show me what is wrong. It's currently sitting in the street of glen oaks.

Help me out and I will pay for lots of beer.

Dead Battery? Does the car starter turn over or does it just click?

Please provide more info. Did the car suddenly die? Does it turn over? F1 Transmission in neutral? If my wife wasn't so close to delivery I would take her down that way to visit old friends she used to teach down that way.

A no signal from the MAF will do it.
