I decided that the best way to cut down on repair costs for my MGB-GT was to
not drive it...   Well that didn't help much.
   First Problem:  No lights, no power, no starting/clicking,etc,...
partially solved with new battery, new grounding, etc.
   Second Problem:  With nice new battery, new ground etc, I've got lights,
but still wont' start.  Makes a nice loud ratt-tat-tat-tat when your turn the
key and tach goes up 500 revs... but no signs of starting.  So that would be
the starter I guess, right?  Any nice and easy ways to figure out if the
starter is jammed or if something else, etc?  Car runs just fine if you push
it down a hill.
