OK..I gotta share this and maybe perhaps someone has either experienced this before, or may know a possible theory.
I drove my 2000 Monte Carlo LS all over this morning taking care of some errands. Probably turned it off and on about 5 or six times in a two to three hour period. At my last stop before going home, I jumped in and the car would not start. No turn over, no click no nothing.....OK...I figured the heat (90 deg around here plus the driving) killed the battery. So I popped on the headlights and other accessories to see if it was dead. All worked fine. Then I thought maybe if the computer does not read fuel pressure, the car would not turn over. Stuck my head out the door and listened for the hum of the fuel pump. Got humm...no start......
Strange coincedence: Man parked right next to me has a brand new motorcycle....less than 1000 miles. WOULD NOT START!!! We both looked at each other thinking WTF is going on here....He decides to push his bike around and pop start it...I pop the hood on my car and check for any loose cables or wires...nothing..... I jump back in the car to close up the windows and thought one last try for kicks......The $@%!@#$ car started right up as if nothing was wrong....jump out of the car and the man on the bike approached with his running bike and stated that his just started out of the blue. He was coming back to see if I needed help. We both got the WTF look again....
Conspiracy theory: Electromagnetic pulse jamming equipment.........
Who knows..seems way too odd. Almost unbelievable if it were not for being completely sober.
This should pull some good stuff out of the wood work!!
Any thoughts?
