Yup...got it put in over the weekend, and the car has been running fine. Then it did the same thing it's been doing, so I guess the problem was NOT the battery.

Marching to the Precious?

Sorry, I don't know the reference -- what movie is that from?

Bummer! Electrical systems are the hardest to diagnose sometimes, could be alternator, or coil, or spark plug wires, or etc...

You didn't accidentally leave your dome light on by chance? That might be running down the battery....

So, ksen calls me shameless, see, and then starts a 64 post sneak and I posted...then you got in the act and I posted "U2."

I'm still waiting for ksen to translate...

Does 50 count as a mini precious?

Didn't think so....[sigh]

Nope...turned it (and everything else) completely off. And it started just fine this morning - no hesitation or anything. It's starting to sound like an alternator / starter problem, or so my Dad and the guys here at work say...

Kinda sounds like the problem might be lunch...

Maybe if you've got your preferences set to only post 50 per page, you can at least get a new page with 50...(but you don't get to be invisible)

It doesn't even crank! Does that really work sometimes, though?

Actually...I can't get the car to even shift unless the power is on. Doesn't let you shift out of park without the brake on, and I guess it can't tell the brake is on without power? I don't know. I just hope whatever it is doesn't cost much!

Sounds like you're in good hands, but that doesn't make it any less frustrating or costly....:~(

Thanks, guys, for the very nice things you said about my daughter. I don't think she can have a career in front of the camera, though, at only 5'3". And yes, she's the one who dyed the dog blue.
