Fred,

Thanks for the quick reply. My inclination is as you describe. I pulled the 
low voltage wires from the solenoid to no avail. Wasn't gonna pull the big 
one. Pulled the battery with success, of course. Any suggestions for 
emergency recovery on no start or no release? Could be in that situation on 
my trip home from work today.

Thanks again for your advice,

Jeff

     The most likely cause of this problem is a sticky solenoid. The current
 (from the ignition switch in "start" position) pulls the solenoid in and the
 return spring is not strong enough to disengage it when the ignition switch
 returns to "run", keeping the starter running. The fix is a new solenoid.
