Karma - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

It was a picture perfect day in Eastern North Carolina. The sun was shining bright, the skies were Carolina Blue and with temperatures in the high 70's I decided to play hooky from work this afternoon and take the car for a spin.

Well, karma is a bitch, isn't it?

I pick up the ZR-1 and head home to pick up my wife. The top is out and she hops in with a big smile for her first ride. No start.

This is the 3rd no start -- so I am seeing a pattern. It happens once every 10-20 starts and only when the car is hot. I should just go back to work, but at this point I am committed. We give it an hour to cool and try it again. Crickets.

I push it up the driveway, let it roll back down, pop the clutch in 2nd and she comes alive.

So we got to enjoy the car a little today anyway. When I parked it in the garage at the end of the day, it started three times. Perhaps I paid my cosmic dues.
