The connection where the smoke is coming out is a bad connection. Either it is the connection between the battery post and the battery cable, or the battery cable itself is bad. If it is the cable to

Make sure that the battery terminals are clean and tight. A bad contact at the battery can do just what you describe. Rotate the cable end back and forth a couple of times to make sure it's tight to

If the headlights don't come on, leave them on anyway and use a screwdriver to short the post to the post. Note that that is positive post to positive cable end, NOT post to post across the battery.

Thanks for the response! I learn something new everyday. Yet, this was the first time I saw a white puff of smoke from the positve battery cable. Anyway, I put a new cable in and for good measure shi

Hi List, Maybe someone can help with resolving this issue. I just put on the rebuilt carbs I got from Keith W. (thanks Keith!). I charged up the battery, as the car has sat all winter and part of the

Thanks to all who responded to my starting issue. With your help, I have found the problem. It was a blown 30A fuse, aftermarket under the hood, probably put in by the po. I replaced it, and everythi
