WHAT WAS THE ORIGINAL ISSUE.......BEFORE YOU JUMPED INTO ACTION?

THIS MAY BE A REVIEW FOR YOU

..............................BUT......(BEAR WITH ME AND GO THRU THE MOTIONS!)

MOST OF THE TIME IT IS SOMETHING TO DO WITH THIS

SHOULD THIS NOT DO THE TRICK

I MAY BE ABLE TO GET YOU A DIAGRAM FROM "MITCHELL I" OF THE STARTING SYSTEM

..................ON THE DOWNSIDE, IT BEING AN '85 MODEL, IF IT IS AVAILABLE, IT MAY BE A FULL DIAGRAM OF THE WHOLE VEHICLE (THE NEWER VEHICLES ARE BROKE DOWN INTO SYSTEMS)---WE'LL ATTACK THAT IF WE HAVE TO!

LEMME KNOW SOME GOOD NEWS!
