Well....the car seems all dried out...I got her up to temp in the
garage....started it about 6-7- times to make sure.

Then took it out on the road for about 45 minutes.....temp got to 189 (normal)....stopped at a store,....got going again...stopped at a 7-11 and when I got back in and tried to start it...."click".....tried again and it fired.

got home.....then in the driveway tried to start it again..."click"......"click"...I have 12 volts on my meter,...then it jumps to 0 when I try to fire and get my click...then back to 12 where it should be.

This is a 3 week old, new tiny starter wrapped in heat shielding (to protect from header heat).

Any ideas on this one?.......Possibly related to moisture? From previous washing incident?(doubtful).....

The car has started/stopped and run fine ...this "click" has never happened before.....

Don't I do a great job of keeping this forum filled with questions?..:_)
