I thought Lady J must have moved on to a new home, haven't seen you around these parts for a while.
Nothing to suggest, just saying hello.

Found the problem. I recently replaced the heater switch must have dislodged one of the wires to the starter relay must have fallen off after I got home. Plugged in bsck working. But new problem with transmission long overdue service required. As to wait till I can afford it.
Thanks all

Lady J still around just a matter of time and funds, we would like to sell her, well the boss does but just no value left in old cars. Fix one problem find another. Becuase she was sitting for so long all the problems are coming out. Trans needs a good service now. But will have to wait have to finish my cold room trailer for my goat meat.
