Car not starting..
Okay..here's the story, about two weeks ago, i left my lights on and my battery died. We jumped it.. my car was able to start and restart ever since. Now, Since i got my new Crane ignition, it seem like it was having trouble starting..day after day, the cranking got worse..its was harder and harder..then finally..yesterday it quit.. i tried to replace the battery this morning, but no luck.. i think now, that it's the starter.. could it be? help me out guys..

Re: Car not starting.. (b18tdelsol)
Does your radio and other electrical components come on? Do you hear a clicking sound but it doesn't turn over when you try to start it? That would be a bad starter. Sometimes you can get it to catch by hitting it with something blunt, otherwise a rebuilt one is like 80 bux I think and shouldn't be too hard to replace.

try to roll-start it. have a friend push the car while you put it in first gear with the clutch down.. and when you get a decent roll pop the clutch. see if the car starts.
