Well the 245 is home. Upon a good tip to check in the trunk for ground connection I looked in the compartment above the tank. Everything looked fine. On a wicked hunch I picked up the back seat. At this point I discovered a little yellow wire disconnected from an apparent ground screwed into the floor. Well I reconnected it and Voila the car started on the first turn. Jesus H Christ. I would like to extend my sincere gratitude and thanks to all who have read and replied with tips and information. I hope I can help one of y'all one of these days! Hopefully though, nobody will need said help for their cars will be running tip top... but just in case I hope to pay it forward!
