Hey Phil,

You'll be there in spirit! I'll post results as soon as I get back home. I already have my digital camera packed away in my car, so there should be plenty of pics as well...

So if I sometimes get front tire spin at stop signs does that mean my Solenoid C is not working?

Not necessarily as your front wheels may be on gravel or something slick.

Best way to test whether you have awd or not is to place your rear tires on gravel and your front tires on a smooth road. Punch the gas from idle. If you hear no gravel being kicked up, then only your front wheels have power. (another way to test is to obviously raise your car up on a lift or on 4 jack stands).

Yes Michael, the transfer clutch is not working. It should spin all four together or none. If you get the fronts spinning and the rear don't then either the clutch is slow taking up or it is not engaging at all. Don't spin them too much, or you may brake the front diff,
