Re: [T3] Turn Signal

[crash 69 <dhbadeer@gmail.com>]

Jim,

Thanks for the offer, I'll keep that in mind.  No problem for now on the TS,
I have other issues.

I've driven over 1200 miles in the past 30 days and it's been running like a
top.  Today it starts bucking and missing, then dies on a two lane highway
(I live in the country).  Cranks but won't fire.  Just got it towed home.
 So, I'll be digging into ignition, fuel, yada yada soon.  Fortunately, it's
not my DD, so I can take my time and figure it out.  Hopefully nothing
serious.

Later,
Dan
