Then check the engine-transmission ground to be certain the throttle cable is not acting as a ground! Next up, ground from battery to body followed by the wire harness grounds. On the wiring harness side of the Lucas reality . <a href="http:// .al"> .al</a>l of the bullet connectors that are black covered where bullet connectors connect to each other. They corrode inside and are usually overlooked. And be certain the fuses are clean on both ends and the clips that hold both ends of the fuses in the fuse box are clean. That is the start of hunting down the culprits. </p><p dir="ltr" style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;">When I did the wiring in my car I bead blasted the black connectors and used dielectric grease during reassembly to deter corrosion growing where I could not see it. And yes I have had a throttle cable bind and upon disassembly found signs of it having acted as a ground.</p><p dir="ltr" style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;">Chuck</p><p dir="ltr" style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;">Been there....broke that.....</p><div id="SignatureBox" dir="ltr" style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;">Sent from my LG Mobile</div></div>

Well that explains everything a massive short or something. I tested the battery this morning with over 12 volts I tossed on a slow charge anyway being the battery is 10 years old. I also had my genny rebuilt by a elect genny rebuilding guy I know several years ago (not cheap) so it can't be the penny and 1 mile can't kill the battery can it? <div dir="ltr"><br></div><div dir="ltr">I'll start checking around the lucas nightmare and get back, tips welcome I have many volt meters....wink.</div><div dir="ltr">Lin</div><div dir="ltr"><br></div>-- <br><div class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature" dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><span style="font-size:small">"Pay if forward" in honor of Frank Clarici III, Spritenut</span><br></div></div></div></div></body></html>
