That's exactly what I figured must have happened. I forgot to mention that it is a '89 900. I'll have to look at the wiring diagram to see if there is a starter relay. If there isn't one installed then it was a mistake not to design the car without one. I obviously shouldn't have kept on cranking on it but when your in the heat of the moment you can do foolish things. I've seen people ruin their automatic transmissions trying to free their car from being stuck in the snow. I ruined a clutch once by trying to push my 1/2 ton truck with my Le Car! (the truck's drive shaft fell out at an intersection in front of my house so I panicked)
