I believe in karma. It might be slow to work, but work it does. Just ask Teddy Kennedy (oh wait, you can't)...
I was settling down to some ice cold beer after my day's adventures. Then the phone rang. My wife found one of our kiddie's friend's Dad sitting beside the road with a dead vehicle. So I hopped in the truck and headed out to investigate.
Sure enough, his Tahoe was dead as a door nail. I had him switch on the key, and I didn't hear the fuel pump come on. So I popped open my tool box, retrieved my tow strap, and hooked him up. When we got to his house, I flipped the truck around to jump his battery. Lo and behold, the fuel pump kicked in, and his truck fired right up. A case of what we in the Navy called "PFM". Pure Fucking Magic. Heh heh...
With the truck running, I couldn't troubleshoot any further. But I suspect his fuel pump relay has gone wonky. Anyhoo, I done my good deed for the day. Always good to keep karma flowin' your way...

Richard, that it does. Slowly sometimes, but surely...
when voltage goes down beyond a certain point many auto electrical systems go wonkee or quit., good to check battery, its connections, and alternator output... sometimes just need terminals cleaned or a fresh new belt....
happy motoring...

Keep up the good work and good will come your way.....some day.
Those gremlins sure do some strange things!
Nothing like padding the "good karma" account, I say! You done good, my friend!
Reciprocity works that is for sure.
You and suburban survivor mom are channeling each other. She started her latest post with: Yes, in fact, I do believe in karma. Since you are on near opposite sides of the country that is some distance.

Wildflower, true. But it turned out to be what I suspected, the fuel pump relay...

Jim, the gremlins love to play. I think I done good. Just waiting for the tide to turn my way...
Russell, (human) reciprocity always seems to leave me hanging... Hey, there's a blog I haven't run across yet!
