Thank you for the great lock advice, Doc. I will definately go that route as it sounds much easier (& less expensive) than having a locksmith return to my house. I also read your many posts here and on AMX files regarding your alternator problems. Your explanation has saved me time and effort while deciding to rebuild the working one that came with the engine or buy a new one. And which one to buy that will fit. Now I need a good coil recommendation. I really appreciate your time and advice Doc! -Lu- --- In BaadAssGremlins@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, AMC74HORNET@xxxx wrote: > Here's a suggestion that might save you some money.
