Found The Fix!


As most of you know, Ive been dealing with some odd electrical symptoms for a while. Ive already replaced the alternator and that helped a bit but there were still "starting" issues.

How does that saying go???
"If it quacks like a duck its probably a duck"????

Well, I got a battery at Walmart for $52 and switched it out in the parking lot. Its like a brand new car now. It starts super strong and even seems to idle better.

Its funny becuase I was really convinced it wasnt the problem. I got to thinking way to hard about this. I checked the voltage on the "tripometer" and it read the same as some others here. But when I went to Autozone, it showed a bad cell. Of course, I cant buy a battery for 79 dollars at AZ so I drove across the street and got one with a 2 yr warranty for 52.

Just proves that analysis is paralysis sometimes.

The battery solved 2 issues. I can cross them off the list. Still got one stupid thing to solve...
The damn knock in the tranny! Its not as bad since the flush and fill but it still knocks sometimes and is annoying.
