![]() Ok, today I hooked the negative battery cable directly to the engine block and attached the grounding strap from the back of one of the heads to the firewall and I still get the engine barely to turn once and then I get that familiar clicking sound.
I was using the '88 to jump start it and got that result. If the battery in the '82 is dead or shot, will it be almost impossible to jump start it? I'm seriously considering going to Wal-Mart tonight and get a 1000 cca battery. I'm at the point where I'm ready to just throw new parts at it and resolve the problem that way. I'm really frustrated righ now....... ![]() ![]() All this time building this thing and now I can't even get the bastard to barely spin!!!! I have to go cool off now!!!!!
