Thank you very much for answering my post. I went out this morning and it started right up. The rest of the day I've had no prob. but as I mentioned I had this happen a few weeks ago also. I'm thinking that the solinoid is getting ready to go out completly. that's going to be my first approach. It was not clicking as you said. I'm glad you mentioned that. I had not thought about whether it was clicking until then. Thanks and i'll let you know how it goes.
It's still having the sever chugging though which is a seperate issue, which I'm still trying to pin down and would appreciate any imput you may have on that.
