Periodic Starting Problems!!!/Ode to Chris 200 89

Good day folks,

First off before I start into my question just want to pass on another message to the fella who was hassling Chris Herbst. GET A LIFE!!

These guys who know SO MUCH about "Bricks", don't have to help us out. But there are thousands of us who do appreciate any little bit of what it

is...FREE ADVICE. I can't begin to imagine how much time and money guys like Chris have saved "Bricksters" through the years. There aren't many things that are free these days! Thanks to Chris and all the others who have helped me out.

My problem relates to trouble I'm having with starts. Periodically, after it's been running (never a problem on initial start ups) the darned brick won't go. Turning over fine and everything but no go. Most times if I leave it for 3-5 minutes she starts fine. The odd time I've had to leave it for 10+ minutes but it will always start.

Compounding the problem is that we are a single vehicle family and my wife is giving me the gears over getting the problem fixed before she gets stranded with the 3 kids. (although it's never happened to her yet) Maybe I'm the problem.

Ideas anyone?
