Well, it's more of an Ontario thing, and they have been wrong before.



As for the car, flooded maybe, could be the ground on the bell housing that goes to the fire wall.

It runs down from beside the wiper motor, to the top od the bell housing, so it's easy to get to. It's very possible that it's something that was mentioned before as well, or a bunch of things as previously mentioned, but thats one of the main grounds, and can cause a no-start, and sometime it doesn't.

Well, I'm probably trading my T-bird for it so I'll make sure that I get it started...and I'll have a parts car too for any problems.
