Well, I got my carb back form Barry Grant and installed. When I was trying to start the car, it got running for a second and it stalled. I adjusted the timming getting it closer. Theis happened a couple of times. When the next time I went to crank over the motor,all I got was a single click and the whole system was shorted out to the body. So, when I took my test like and went from the - on ghe battery to the body of the car, it lite up. If I went from the + of the battery to the body nothing, so there is a short, but what would suddenly short? Would the starter relay on the inter fender do this, or could the starter do this? I didn't really get into it very deep last night as I ran out of time. Any one have any ideas?
 
Sounds like you lost ground conection . Check/clean the battery terminals, etc...
