You guys are great ! Late this afternoon we had the time and thoroughly cleaned every connection you had mentioned. There were only a couple of connections that looked dirty. The ground cable from the battery at the engine block and the small micro switch that is the center / right one had slight corrosion on its connector. We slightly adjusted the left side micro switch so it didn't touch at all when it is in the neutral position. We also cleaned the wire connector that hooks up to the starter solenoid, it was in need of cleaning also. Every connector got a dab of dielectric grease and we checked the battery for full charge. After all that---IT NOW WORKS AND STARTS JUST GREAT !!!!! and NOOOOo CLICKING NOISE !!!!! Thanks to all of you guys, life and work at Cal Turf is a little nicer tonight !!! We are grateful as well as humbled that guys like yourselves would take the time to share your knowledge and expertise with a complete stranger. Thank You again !! Tom

Fact of the week
Foundling hatches are safe, anonymous drop-off points for unwanted infants, allowing parents in crisis a way to surrender a baby safely without fear of punishment, ensuring the child is rescued and cared for. The concept started in the 12th century, was abandoned in the late 19th century, then reintroduced in 1952. It has since been adopted in many countries.
