I have had a GM key on the work bench for a long time...I think it was in
the bottom of a 5 galon bucket of junk that I got the from the guy I got the
truck from.  I never gave it any thought untill you guy's on the list said
to check my old spare keys (I was having a brain fart here    doh!!!!).

Anyway, the first key I tried was that loose GM key from the work bench and
BINGO it worked......YEAH !!!!!!  I know this key was never in the truck,
but for some reason I just kept it on the bench so I wouldn't lose it.
Funny how things like that work out.

Hooked a battery up to bump the engine to see if it is free....it won't
turn.  I guess it's time to soak the cylinders and get drity, but that's
another day....to cold out there!  :)

Thanks for all the support and ideas!
