    Negative battery terminal sparking on contact

    It was a large enough spark that it left a noticeable gash in the battery terminal. Not sure if that's considered a welding type spark.

    Negative battery terminal sparking on contact

    Yeah thats probably some good advice haha. The mini starters have the terminals facing inwards towards the engine block so it was difficult to tell their positioning. I'll be taking another look, thanks

    273 harmonic balancer bolt

    Hey everyone, I'm needing to replace my timing chain and already hit a road block. I can't seem to find a way to brace the crank so I can crack the harmonic balancer bolt loose. I've tried wedging a screwdriver between the flywheel teeth and bell housing but always slips out under force. Is the...

    Thank you all for taking the time to help! Sounds like I have a few things to test/diagnose. I'll start with the charging system, then make sure the fuel filter isn't clogged and receiving proper pressure from the pump. Once that all checks out I will check under the distributor cap to see if...

    65 Barracuda - Idle and no start issues

    Bogged. I would feel it start to die and give some some gas but wasn't always enough to keep the car running. Makes me question the air/fuel ratio..

    65 Barracuda - Idle and no start issues

    Thanks for all the input so far! I installed a brand new battery when I purchased the car, but have not checked how much juice is left after the no start. Condition of alternator is unknown and there is no functioning ammeter present so I suppose that could be it, although I still had...
