Do lots of jiggling. I find 90% of the problems by jiggling everything in sight.

I can't get my head wrapped around the "randomness" of these occurrences. No warning, no indication of anything wrong. It just happens. Then a few hours later its normal. THAT is what's really causing me to loose my otherwise cool as a cucumber demeanor. Things just don't fail for no reason.

I keep a spare fs link on stand by in the glove compartment, you know...just incase. Got nothing to loose by swapping it in now I suppose.

You have spark?

You have spark?

When it malfunctions, it doesn't seem to get full voltage to spin the starter (best guess). When it does turn over, however yeah spark is nice and strong to all 8 cylinders.
