Disappointment!

Weather here was unmerciful until about a week ago and I missed the first beautiful week of fall driving because I had the steering wheel out messing around with trying to get the horn to work.
All that's left is those little things: horn, visor clips, mounting speakers....you know little stuff. So, this morning I got up and got busy with those things, went for a drive this afternoon and the starter went out. This is the second time this has happpend AND its a new starter. Now I've got to remove and replace it before I can drive to work on Monday or miss another week of "Midget Weather" /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/wall.gif I am not happy!
 
Terri - just a big breath (and maybe a similarly sized margarita) and all will be well. Think of it as an opportunity to figure out why the starters keep failing.

Okay, it's really annoying, but what can you do? /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/smile.gif
 
I had to send out my B' starter for rebuild (cheaper than getting a new one). I push started the car for the week it was gone. I'm glad we have small cars.. /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/smile.gif
