Well I will have to do some reading. I'm off to try and start my daughter's jeep (long story jeep has been down for 2 years and I am now ready to try and start it). Later

Failure. Actually sort of spectacular; minor wire harness fire when I connected the battery. Long story short; 2 years ago son fries head on jeep. Been working on it off and on ever since. Well evidently there has developed, in the interim, a short between positive and negative power leads coming off battery. Well now I need a new wire harness. Did I mention I don't like working on cars.

Such fun!! [8|] [:'(]

Also on the car front: the guys at the Coyote Urine Store talked my wife out of spraying Coyote Urine on her car engine. So now, she is using her car as "bait" for a series of mouse traps... [:D]

Good going - even minor car fires usually become major car fires in very short order...

i'm guessing mice nibbled on the wiring. i suggest a liberal dose of Coyote Urine...


EDIT: PS - let me know how this works/smells!
