Hey everyone... here's a weird one.  Ms. Jenavieve has done this three times in the past few days.  It only happens once, and only when starting for the first time of the day.

Steps: Put key in ignition.  Turn to start position.  Starter spins and turns the engine.  Engine doesn't start because she never starts on the first try.  So far so good, right?

Here's where it gets weird.  Release key to on position.  Starter continues to turn.  Even if I turn the key to lock and remove the key!  After about 10 seconds she stops turning over.  From there, it's business as usual... try to start again and she works normally.

Scratching my head on this one.  Sticking solenoid maybe?
