I finally got it running again,(tell you how later) test-run it the next two days 45 min one, 20 or so yesterday. This morning it started right up and died inmediately. Has refused to start since.
I am beginning to believe I have a loose wire - bad connection problem. Let me tell you why. This is how I got it running. Since I initially supected the FPR, I substituted the one that was on with a new one. No joy. I substituted it with and old one. Nothing. Then I put back the original one and it started right up and as mentioned run for the next two days.
Now let me back up and tell you what I am suspecting. This car is my wife's daily driver. She's been driving it for over 6 years now. Sometime last spring, (cant recall exactly when) leaving work,the car would not start so she called a mechanic nearby. By the time I got there they had remove the glove box, lower panel, broken one of the vacuum pods and who knows what else and finally replaced the FPR. I do not drive the car much, wife does not like that, but a couple of times that I did I noticed that the radio would work intermitently. Then she said it stopped working, then that it was working again.
When I removed the glove compartment to remove the FPR this time I noticed that the tray holding it moved quite a bit and seemed to be tied to something with a plastic tie-up. Finally, the turn signals have stopped working. It all may be a coincidence, but I cannot help thinking that I have an electrical problem in that area. What do you think?
I plan to check all fuses and then inspect the wiring as best I can, then I do not know.
This could be real hell, so I will appreciate your sugesstions.
Thanks.
