To DMCJoe and all others who have helped me out with my no power problem. I have decided to trade my beloved DeLorean for a nice '76 pacer..........That was a joke. Seriously now, my problem seems to have been fixed although I'm not totally sure of how or why. I tried DMCjoes last suggestion about sticking a light meter into the #7 fuse socket and I had no pwer to it. I was totally prepared to call him but I wanted to try his other idea about putting the jumper cable onto the negative ground and then to the engine block. As soon as I put the cable onto the negative ground everything lit up, that is without the other end of the cable being attached to anything. I couldn't get the cable attached to the negative cable inside the engine compartment so I tackled it from underneath and put it on the threads of the bolt. After I disconnected the jumper cable everything stayed on. I went ahead and pulled the bolt out and cleaned the frame up even more with engine cleaner and put a brand new bolt in. So far so good. Does it sound like a coincidence and maybe an intermittent problem or do you think it will last? I'm not sure how well my faith is restored in this fix yet. Anyway, thanks to all that helped me out. I do appreciate it. Now if I could just keep my SVX from dying at idle. Thanks again....................Jason [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
