Thom Posted March 3, 2023 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2023 Thank you wdaly for the offer. Engine was dead in the water and I was just tracking all the possible culprits (I always expect the worst). It appears that it may have been a battery issue although the battery is only 6 months old. Took it in and yes it was bad, exchanged for new one and will be putting it tomorrow. Being a rookie I was going down the list; battery, alternator, starter solenoid. starter, ignition key cylinder, ignition switch? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
