an end on it that's just different from everything else I have here. The

started the car when we left Hayes KS that next morning, and didn't shut it off
until we got to Marilyn's that afternoon. I looked around in the shop, and found
a very dirty AT starter out in the shop, tested it and installed it for the ride
home. At this point I'm not too worried about it, and the car was sold (3 years
ago). I do like to have a spare one floating around, as I've still got a couple
of air cooled VW's sitting around here.</DIV>
