All;

Those of you who have been following my electrical problems and trying to help will be pleased to hear that all my 90's problems are gone away. The problems came from a combination of two things: a bad hall sensor and an out-of-adjustment idle switch. The hall effect sensor was replaced a week ago and the no-starting problem was solved. The arrival and hookup of a digitool (thanks, Mark Drillock, and thanks for the ECU for diagnosis, too) told me in seconds what the problem was. David B. and others pointed me to the adjustment, which is really simple with the throttle body out of the car.

It runs great now, which is a good thing, because a potential buyer is coming to look at it tomorrow!

Jim
