The metal in the bottom of the lighter socket is gone. When I stuck the voltmeter probe down the socket I knocked out the last loose piece. The socket had voltage. Just the piece that completed the circuit to the middle of the lighter coil was broken and gone.

I am absolutely delighted with the car. It has 10,000 miles on it and I got it for $10,100. I think that is a real value. Certainly in the range Crossfires are selling for but they are now a smoking deal I think. 215 hp, 3,000 pounds, six speed, 150mph, excellent suspension, great styling, scarce if not rare, very good gas mileage, 10,000 miles, $10,000, what a great deal!

I have another vehicle so working out the bugs and maintaining the car is a labor of love. There is no "have to get it running by Monday morning" stress.

Thanks for all the help and information and for the encouragement.

Mike
