New Gremlin found. HELP!!!!!
OK this is a beauty.
A few months ago when I was going through the alternator saga I changed most of my fuses. I turned my heater on and a noise came from the back of the car that sounded as if the engine had dropped out and I was pulling it behind the car. After that night I hadnt put the heater on again. I told the mechanic late last night about the problem and he turned the reds on and the heater on. The engine cranked over..????!!!!!!!!!! Ok so some how my heater blower motor is powering up my starter. Where do I start???????
ISSUE #2
My clutch peddle last night decided it had given up on popping all the way out. It feels like half a peddle but it is still working. Any ideas?

Well my son does think that pulling up on the heating levers is the cars " warp engines" ..maybe in your car it's true !!!! ..
but what is "turning the reds on " mean ??
I imagine the heater is the levers on the floor.
