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. Ryan Schamper > okay....NOW I AM JUST PISSED!
