Re: [T3] gen/VR trouble

This sounds just like what I had. I posted the problem here, that my
squareback would turn over and run but if I turned it off and tried to
restart it, it would not turn over. Anyway it was draining my battery a
little also. My solution was the ground strap from the trans to the chassis.
I took the strap off cleaned it good and sanded where it connects at both
ends and installed it. I have not had a problem since. I hope this helps.
