It's a good thing I didn't stop on my way home this afternoon. The ground wire fell of the starter selenoid(sp). Of course, I didn't try to start the car until I had the new thermostat installed. Then, because of antifreeze all over everything in the front of the engine, that is all I thought of.
There are extra wires everywhere on this car. The A/C compressor is missing, but the wires are still there. The pollution control stuff is gone and there are wires that aren't connected. So finding the ground wire was pure luck. That and being in my garage helped too.
Thanks all,

Klaus
