rain_man_rich Posted June 22, 2013 Author Share Posted June 22, 2013 (edited) Ivan, great tips man. Thanks. TomRHere, that link is just what the doctor ordered, thanks. grossgary, I will follow your lead, much obliged. The car was fully charged this morning. I must have left something on the day before. I'll keep an eye on it. Started up perfectly, ran perfectly (better than normal). Guess I'll wait and see what tomorrow brings! The daughter is taking the car on a 60 mile round trip later today I told her to call me if anything out of the ordinary occurs Stay tuned...

rain_man_rich Posted July 1, 2013 Author Share Posted July 1, 2013 Found it! The wiring harness was shorted out on the chassis. More specifically it was a fuel injector wire after then dropping resistor. That explains a bunch, especially after looking at the wiring diagram. Thanks to all for the tips.
