re-twisted all the wires, and used a 3/16" ID ground strap to put around the Plug and ground wires for about 15". I grounded the braided wire to the plug ground and quick disconnect on the plug-It's a brass cap used for remote starts that requires only an 1/8 turn to lock it on.

Now all works well. Still some EMI but only about half as much is seen on my receiver, and this doesn't seem to cause any problems. so far so good.

will have some pics soon
