I finally was able to start it with a screw driver jumping the starter solenoid

This certainly makes it sound like something in the "S" circuit to the
solenoid. (Ignition switch, connector or a broken wire in the
harness).


Well, I am not backing away from the Sulfated Battery (sp?) or cell, but
a bad connection could do the same thing...

Either way if the battery survives the draw down test, it's time to
check the wiring for sure...


Does anyone ever "back down" around here ;-)


Absolutly, in my last post I actually differed to Dick to come in and
verify, or kill my observation..
