Tomorrow morning, I'll be tearing into grounds, and other various contacts to clean and reconnect. If that doesn't do the trick, I'm buying a new battery. Who knows how old or what sort of abuse this one's been through, so better safe than sorry. And if that doesn't do the trick, time for a new starter. Who knows when that's been changed, if ever.

BRay09, the timing issue, did you find that you had to advance or retard? How would heat play a role in timing resulting in a hot-not start issue?

I know I sound like a 5-year-old sometimes, "Why? Why? Why?", and for that, I'm sorry, but a whole lotta dollars can be blown on "just because."

Thanks again for all your knowledge and support.
