I woke the van up today. I had charged the battery up yesterday, thinking a low battery might have been the cause. I did notice that the sides of the battery were bulging a bit. I think I may get a new one. I dropped the battery in the van and cranked and cranked and still it didn't catch. Until I put my foot on the break pedal. Sort like turning on the headlights to check if the battery has juice. It was pre-meditated, and the second the break lights came on, the engine started. Go figure...

It's just like magic...
Only different.

Maybe. We'll see. Does luck, sufficiently advanced enough, appear as genius to the rest of the world?

I remember you saying that you were having problems just like I was, where it would crank but not catch. There might be a short in the system. Besides me, that is. Definitely not injector related, tho.

Pshaw. Simple physics. I suspect there may be a sensor out of whack somewhere. It seems to me, though I might be wrong, that there are some autos that do not start if you don't have your foot on the break. This might be a case of that. I dunno. I may have to check deeper, if it concerns me.
