Ok, went to the car show today (at Back Woods Larry) Well I thought I would be cool, and drive the car open headers down there 1 mile to the show. I got to the end of my street, and I hear a wretched noise...I turn off the key, and the car is still on. I have NO idea what the hell is going on. I pop the hood open immediately and pull the coil wire. The motor dies. But, is still cranking. Then I pull the battery cable. Hmmm??? Put the cables on, and it starts...COOL!!! Drive it open header to the show, pull heads like no other...I feel like King ****. EVERYONE walks frantically over to the car when I lift the hood to see a monster. (a small block Cleveland)
Get ready to leave and a big Block Chevelle starts up his car to warm it up and leave. he did not hear the mach 1 pull in, so he has no clue. He starts it up. I get in the mach 1 to start it. IT STARTS!!!
Then the wretched noise starts...DOUGH!!! Get out, pull coil/battery. Hmm...Beat the **** out of the starter...put coil wire back on, and touch the battery to the post. Car starts cranking over...KEYS ARE IN MY POCKET. WTF?? Beat the starter a little more, then the starter solenoid. Starts up okay. sounded like a beast again, but still I ran like a dog with my tail between my legs.
What is the problem here?
The starter?
