    Sell it on ebay as "runs perfect, no problems" and just get a new one. :D
     
  2. Any updates? Good news or bad?

    I ended up pulling the starter and tightening the stud. Put it all back together and everything has been fine since.

    If you have an overcharging condition the battery will stink like rotten eggs, and will get hot. I've seen a problem with corrossion build-up inside the possitive cable going to the starter, this causes resistance and therefore the engine won't start, just a thought. Hopefully you've got it solved with the starter connection. Good luck...
     
  5. Outstanding. Congratulations.

    when ever ive had a question about the battery being dead ill turn the headlights on and see if they are bight, crank it (or try and crank it) and if the light go out =dead battery, if they stay on i know its a starter/solinoid/switch problem.
