        Thanks much for that sugestion ~

        Shuda Looked There 1st > Wire from there to BlackBox B+Post was Well Toasted,

had lost Lots of Its insulation way far into its plastic shield & had become disconnected

from Its Ring Terminal ~ When I removed the Larger Wire from Alt’+ & attempted to

straighten a sever bend It had due to being mounted incorrectly on Alt’, Its RingConn’

pulled off in My fingers > Obvious Bad Crimp There ~ @ 1st Look when Van arrived the

Relays, FuelPump, IACV were All functioning so guessing the BlackBox B+ Wire was just

HangingOn @ Alt' by a Few Strands ~ That might explain why after few Hr’s of Tests &

Parts Swaps the Symptoms Got Worse ~  Any ideas what might have been the cause of

excessive heat in wire to BlackBox B+ ~ Damage did not appear fresh & may very well 

have happened over time ~

	

        Thanks
