Thanks for all the thoughts. Everything is pointing toward the ground. I
didn't have anytime this past weekend unfortunately. And by the looks of it, I
don't have time during the week.

starter from that, so you can use the meter at the batteries, solenoid etc. to
narrow it down.  Also measure between the engine and a body earth, which
should show zero (or very low) volts while cranking.  Voltage in that test
indicates the engine/gearbox earth is bad.
