Service Stab Sys

Check engine light on
then, I turned the car back on:
Fuel showed as empty
Engine light still on
I turned everything off, got out to check everything. I turned the car on a third time:
Only check engine light on.
After the H3 was towed to the dealer, they ran a test saying that the engine failed a pressure test, and the head needed to be replaced. It also sounded like there were some diagnostic codes that were identified as well that told more of the story of the problem.
They said the fuel issue was due to something called the 'Fuel sending system' (I don't have my notes, but they did not refer to it as the fuel pump)

weird, i got the exact same codes and lights (except for the fuel gauge malfunction) when my ABS encoder craped out.
what would traction and stab system have to do with a bad head?
glad you got it taken care of though.
