RE: Convert points to electic

[Rich Kinsley <rlkinsley@xxxxxxxxx>]

I believe this is likely to happen to any carbureted car around here. 
It's evaporation at it's worst. The starter fluid is by my side in the 
car. I put it under the seat. Pop the hood, give it a squirt and you're 
off and running. My mower has a primer or it would behave the same way.

----
Please address private mail -- mail of interest to only one person -- directly to that person.  I.e., send parts/car transactions and negotiations as well as other personal messages only to the intended recipient, not to the Clubhouse public address. This practice will protect your privacy, reduce the total volume of mail and fine tune the content signal to Mopar topic.  Thanks!
