having probs with my 87 5kq

[Geo <gamills@ns.sympatico.ca>]

Having problems friends. I don't know if this will get through or not.
I just dl'ed Netscape 4.7 and have no mail access, so I'm using Agent.
Think I have the settings right.

Onto the story.  I started the car up yesterday and it ran perfectly.
Forgot something, shut down, get something, start up, won't go.  Fires
up, but stalls.  Icy morning.  On around the 10th try the starter
groans to a halt, like it's seized.  Not your normal run out of bats
in the battery type slow down.  Check the headlights and I've still
got lots of bats. Jumped it.  Nada. Could have fried something at this
point.  Have no codes of course.  The engine is not seized as I can
get motion with my hands.  Swapped in another starter that runs free
when jumped to the bat when I checked it before install.  Charged the
bat just in case while I'm 'fooling around' with the starter (bug*er,
should have put it on the other side).  Now all I have is a 'click'
from the solenoid.  Looks like we'll be taking the Scoobedoo tomorrow.
Not as much fun, but it goes:)

Any thoughts are greatly appreciated.  I'll have some food for thought
while I'm 'ruminating' with the in-laws:)
