Click? won't start ***2nd update***
Well it happened again this morning, wouldn't start again. This time not even a click in the starter relay. This time I checked the bolts that hold the starter to the inner primary and found them to be slightly loose. Since these bolts are what grounds the starter, guessing I didn't have a good ground
Anywho, tightened 'em up good and started right up.

In how many posts have I told everybody here when you have the
symptoms you had to check these bolts?
The starter gets it's ground through these bolts, no ground no workeee!

However everybody pretty much just passes up your posts in an effort to get past the complaining
See the smile?

So who are you directing the FO to?
Me or rocknrod?
I was being sarcastic, because I have a right to be.
Every time someone comes here and describes a problem,
That I can in anyway help trace it down with a logical flow chart
I give it to them.
I don't jump on the band wagon.
for I.E. one person says battery
A dozen more jump in but don't offer anything else.
Where I take them step by step through the most common and
easiest items to check and what to look for.
and yeah I give people crap, byt telling them to buy the damne manual like
a lot of us other did.
Some don't want to spend money on manual, they want to come here
and get it for free.
Some times my answer are right sometimes wrong. But most of time
people don't come back and say what they finally found wrong, and I don't
have time to review each and every thread, nor go back 5, 10, 15, + pages
to see what the out come was.
I took auto tech in high school, college, electronics in the Corp,working on
everything from chain saws, to F4's, A-6's, ov10'S,Cobras, Ch47 &53's and Hueys
Civilian life car, pickup, over road trucks, catarpillar heavy equipment and more.
I taught electronic fuel injection at a junior college.
So I would guess I got a good rounded education on how electronic circuits work
and engine and transmissions over all.
And no I'm not perfect I forget some things, or overlook something, and sometimes
I like everyone else here find out it was something totally unexpected that went wrong.
The originator of this post was DAWG not you, so my comment was to him.
Because just a couple days back someone else had same problem and told them what to check
where and how.
Don't know what the final outcome was, as I think they took it to dealer and it needed to
sit there for about a week!
