howdy,
I briefly tried the archieves for this prob so I'm not totally taking
advantage of you listees.  MY WESTIE WON'T START on its own but will start
(with a struggle) w/ a jump.  It's a '90 westie which i have had stored all
winter until last sunday when i took it out all day....couldn't bare to look
at it sitting there anylonger....started fine,and has always started fine
(new to me since nov).  Decided to take it to work monday evening....stopped
to get a cup of Java.....came out and it did not start....at first no lights
no nothing ...than after a few tries the lights (oil,collant,battery) came of
followed by the annoying buzzer.  Today went out to it and tried to
start...all lights worked and headlights ect....but would just click once or
twice....then nothing.  I brough my other '88 gl to help its younger brother
and it started, took a little coaking...prob like its 3rd turn of the
key...It really didn't kick in all that well, but it started and ran fine for
awhile, just let is sit there hoping to charge up.  Turned it off and
.....back to the drawing board.  I own a bentley,as all of us should, so i
can get current parameters from that....my question is all all this shpeal
is....how does the ignition/starter work....what is the path from the
battery-->starter switch-->-->starter-->altenator-->distributor-->engine
start.  I would like to have a clue......any and all other suggestion will be
appreciated a always...
thanks
