Due to my baby nipping a truck in the rear end; we now need all of her front end. I'm especially interested in where to find the complete head light assemblies as my normal sources are out of them. Some one please help as we want to get back, "on the road again".
THANKS

Before you check anything like the starter relay, I'd try the simple thing first. Disconnect the battery and clean the terminals. It MIGHT be as simple as that.

the only thing you mentioned that could improve your heating problem was having th radiator flushed. take a few more steps. is your fan belt worn out? is your water pump working? replace the thermostat! are your water hoses collapsing ? is the water passages clogged up? do you use the "proper antifreeze? yes anti freeze it is a coolant and engine protector.

IF YOU HAVEN'T GOTTEN THE ROOF MOTOR REPLACED A GOOD PLACED TO GET ONE IS THE AUTOMOTIVE JUNK YARDS, CHECK THE YELLOW PAGES UNDER USED AUTO PARTS. THEN YOU WILL NEED SOMEONE TO INSTALL IT.
GOOD LUCK!

I AM GUESSING FROM WHAT YOU HAVE SAID YOU STILL HAVE A SHORT IN THE SYSTEM TRY PULLING THE STEERING WHEEL SOMETHING (TURN SIGNAL MECHANISM?) SHORTS IN THE SYSTEM WILL DAMAGE THE ALTERNATOR -
POWER SPIKES- ALSO CHECK OUT THE THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR IF IT HAS ONE. LOOK AT ALL ELECT. CONNECTORS. GOOD LUCK.

IS YOUR FUEL PUMP WORKING? DO YOU HAVE IGNITION? IT'S NOT A GOOD IDEA BUT THE BEST I HAVE IS PULL ONE SPARK OUT CONNECT IT TO IT'S LEAD
LAY IT ON THE ENGINE, THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD WILL DO, IT MUST BE GROUNDED TO THE ENGINE LET GO OF THE PLUG (PLEASE} HAVE SOMEONE
CRANK THE ENGINE IF THE PLUG SPARKS IGNITION SYSTEM IS OK.

to; pf-flyer thank you for replying. I feel like a idiot! I almost rebuilt my car looking for the start relay. no such animal, still haven't found it. but I don,t need it either, my problem was a dying battery, it went totally dead sitting on the floor. I miss read my battery charger to say the battery was fully charged instead of fully dead. my car runs fine with it's new battery.-------------thanks again!
