verdict? Clean bench test, ground strap pristine...may have been a loose wire at the positive terminal of the battery. The new VR I put in and a twist of a nut seem to have made her happy again. Guinness and Anchor Steam made Tyson, Jeremy and Dave happy.

I still haven't figured out what that green stuff is, or what it's for. Is it bleeding? Like the alien in Predator? My 911 never did that. I don't get it. :confused:

I filled the radiator with air, so now it's air cooled, like a Porsche should be. :)

Sort of like the witch in the Wizard of OZ - I'm meltinggggggg.................
