Well I'm floored. My carrier (a Ford) has started with one push of the button for almost a week now. Even after sitting overnight...like for a full 24 hours!! It's never been that agreeable. And yes...sure...I just did a battery to spark plug refresh with new parts, cleaned connections, the works. I've gone that route before but it always retained some hesitancy starting I could never quite pin down, unless because of some undefined vehicular 'spirit' (which I truly believe in).

Now, I can't argue with results. But note that a Chev can sit in a field for twenty years and start with a semi-charged battery and a squirt of gas. It will run with any conceivable combination of worn out parts and loose connections. A Ford, after that much time, would require 2 gallons of diesel thrown down the pipe, time to absorb it, and still remain seized solid.

Go figure.

I got LOTS of drip pans.
