Listeners:

You may recall my comments about the High Torque starter which would go =
zap and cause the entire electrical system to go dead.  My two friends =
are much more knowledgeable than I and could not figure out why.   =
Eventually I discovered if you take off the battery ground and leave it =
off for a few minutes, then reconnect, viola the electrical system comes =
alive again. The fuel pump hums, the lights go on, the horn blows.  =
Unfortunately, when you engage the starter zap goes the starter. We took =
the starter off the car and bench tested it. We tested the positive =
cable from the battery solenoid, the ground, all connections and so on. =
Same problem.

=20

I got a new starter from WOSP and installed it.  Same problem.  The =
noise is always in the starter.

=20

We are stumped IDEAS??
