    Today I opened the door, got behind the wheel, turned the key and 
got that sick sound of silence.
Yesterday was fine but the demons were focused on me not enjoying a 
sunny Bricklin drive today.
There was plenty of battery power but nothing at the fuse terminals. I 
traced it to the bulkhead
connector. When I parted the connector I found a gooey tar like 
substance covering the inside of
the connector. This has to be where the contact was lost. I will clean 
this off and expect no further
problem.
    Has this happened to anyone else and where does that tar like 
substance come from?

    Thanks....Don #1880, #2745
