Re: help! hesitation again




	it's definately a mess out there.  i got the brake lights
	going again by taking apart the driver side tail-light
	assembly and cleaning the contacts, giving the wires a
	good poke in there.  i did observe the weird wiring 
	under the dash.  the photos on scott mockery's site
	do it justice.

	going to run mike back up the mountain, we'll see if the
	car runs the same as it did on the way home from davis.

	phil, what do you think about the hesitations?
