I am sure there is somebody out there I could trust but sometimes I have to laugh when a read posting where people assume there is a good mechanist, welder, mechanic, engine builder....etc just down the street. Here in Atlanta, the city of transients, we are awash with unqualified people who land in these positions because they have failed at everything else they have tried...possibly through no fault of their own. The really good ones, the people who consider it their career, not just some fall back position, don't need to advertise in most cases, don't have web sites or email addresses and are very hard to find especially for people like me who do everything themselves 99.9% of the time. Heck, I don't even know where I would bring my car if I needed a simple mechanic around here.

Anyway... I did have my old unit checked at Advance Auto Parts after a thorough cleaning of the single wire contact area, they brought me back to watch the test and the unit appears to be OK. I suspect my problem may have been a bad wire connection. I sanded and cleaned all the contact points. Hopefully this fixed the problem. I did learn a lot and plan on tracking down a spare and ordering the correct pulley separately from the post from WVZR-1 above.
