Beth, don't rule out an electrical problem! Even with fouled plugs... Pull a wire off one of the plugs, and hold it close to the block. Be sure your fingers aren't near the exposed metal!

It's looks like my garage is going to happen! First I submitted a site plan, which I knew would be rejected; the property wasn't zoned for it. So I sought approval from my neighbors and my local civic association, showing plans, making revisions they requested, etc. Then I went before the zoning boa...

Ed Ober suggested there was some difference in the dash aluminum, but I'm not sure I've seen the difference. Can anyone speak to that? Oops, I misspoke.
