Last couple weeks the wifes S10 2000 (125K mi) has been acting up, not starting when you ask it. I can't diagnose it because it only does it when it feels like it, no pattern at all, something electrical. Left me stranded at work at 4:00 am and next day went to work on it and it starts right up.
The brakes started squealing so I've got it in the shed with the wheels off trying to get figure out the terrible tire ware on the front and see if there is a bad connection at the starter, I guess my set of SAE and metric wrenches, sockets, extensions, ratchets and impact aren't enough to get at it.
Next my 92 k2500 (180K mi) started, well, not starting, bad drain on battery somewhere. It did the same thing last year and healed itself. This is bad cause I have to take the oldest kid (5) to and from the bus stop 4 miles from home and I need the ext cab to get that done, because of the other two little ones (2 and 9 months)
Since the wifes truck is down she has the van (04 Montana 198K) which I normally would have. She calls tonight 60 miles from home. It wont start. Something electrical, has 12v at the battery. I need parts and more tools but no way to get to town and back. I lost most of my religion after talking with the wife. At least we have or health. Nate
