This! In my experience, CIS can be a real pain, even for really experienced techs to figure out as you and current owner can see. Once sorted, it's fine. Getting there is another story. Is there another tech you can take it to? Otherwise, slow process of elimination as Rawknees stated. As to whether to walk away, unless the car really speaks to you, there are other fish in the sea.
