Yet another issue.

By ballistic
- Mon Aug 10, 2009 6:10 pm #137047 Well, I went for a drive with my new clutch, flywheel and tranny (like them a lot better than the old) and I was just starting out, and killed it (stage3 6puck 8lb flywheel second time driving the new setup lol) and I went to start the car, any it wouldn't start.

So luckly I had a friend with me, and we pop started it, and it started up right away just fine, everything seems to be okay, we get back to my house, shut it off and try to turn it on, nothing.

Now, I know it's getting fuel because it starts on the pop start, and I know there's battery because my radio, clock, gauges all work. Is it my starter? What do you think?

a battery can have enough juice to run gauges, radio but not enough to start the car because that takes a lot of power.

Good call dude, I went out there, wiggled on the connector and it just basically fell right out. :thumb:

Grabbed some sand paper, cleaned off the corrosion and stuff, put it back in and it fired right up :woot:

Gold star for you
