Legback Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 Battery is SOOO dead it won't even take a jump. New battery first. then go from there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fairtax4me Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 (edited) X2 on battery How did you check the starter? The contacts in these starters wear out and often cause problems like this. Edited January 24, 2011 by Fairtax4me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legback Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 If you're on the edge about the battery..have it tested with a good old analog tester(if you can find one). That new fangled Interstate battery computer lies. It had me replace my perfectly good original Denso starter with an inferior napa slow reving remanned crap....what a tragedy. Dig the old analog battery tester out of the drawer just in case the fancy one isn't feeling well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
