Default Re: Frustration

When you say you let your off the starter and it starts, makes me think you have some bad grounds, electrical connections, Or a bad battery, or starter.Have someone put a voltmeter on the battery and note the voltage before hitting the starter and while it’s trying to start. If there’s a drop of more than 2 to 3 volts, then you need to test your battery or starter. What happens is, all the voltage is going to the starter and there’s not enough voltage to fire the ignition. When you let off the starter and if everything is aligned right, the surge of voltage going back into the coil will fire the engine.
