Problem SOLVED!! Thanks guys

Load test showed charging system OK and 2.5 year old battery OK; Typical, after a 30 min trickle charge at home, car started just fine. Like going to the Doctor and it doesn't hurt anymore

So the mechannic pulled the voltage regulator out, and sure enough, brushes on it (the original) were worn, so put in a new one, and everything just great.

You guys were spot on.

THANKS!!!!

The car will get rewarded with a new headliner for this next month!


Jim
