After a couple of delays we finally got it fired up and running....Ran for 10 minutes then clicked it off and let it cool...
Noticed that the starter was really dragging getting it started...Has two batteries in it plus alternator...
Fired it back up and ran for another 10 minutes...then began to cool it off....I pulled the valve covers to check everything...again starter dragged turning engine over to check valves...
Hooked battery charger up and got thing on the charger...I remember while it was running the voltmeter was only showing 12 volts....then my daughter said yes..that where it was went we were in Bakersfield too...
Pulled the trunk lid and hook battery charger directly to battery.....well they are dead....
We got the timing set before I burned up the timing light on the header........got the trans topped off with fluid before we shut it off....rear tires are turning which is a good sign....Need to test transbrake.....
Need to take alternator over to small shop and have it rebuild...one of those one wire powermasters...
