uggh. Salt. The last three weeks has been
the first time my 84 has ever been in any
salt at all. (Snow is now about 2 feet deep
where I've been working, with a short
'off-road' experience of about 50 feet
in the snow twice each day.)

So this morning with some nice dry pavement
and no one waiting for me to get out of the
way, I checked a lot of wire connections.
The solenoid terminal looked like a
mini volcano with the salt crystals built up
on it.

One application of the automotive tool
that I've seen get more cars back on the road
than any other - a wire brush - and all is well
again.

I'll probably still track down one of those
plastic switches though; I'll probably
do it at a junkyard because with one of
those switches you could start most any
Vanagon and probably several other VW Models
as well.
