ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!

Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Beginner Forum Rules - EVERYBODY read! (old and new members alike!)

Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.

These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.

1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

The rules for the overall forum can be found here:

    ill give my 2 sense. but i cant guarentee its correctness.

    the battery.
    simple 6 cell battery but it seems as if it may have a cell going bad in it.
    and when you put it in gear it maybe drawing too much drop in voltage from your battery to cause it to stall out.


    like i said i may be wrong.

        When it doesn't start does it crank over or does it do nothing? If it cranks but won't start and then dies when it does start it could be the main relay.

              I would try the main relay if I were you, it is supposed to be pretty easy to fix. I haven't done it myself but I have been told you just need to take it out and have it soldered or replace it. Here is a link on how to repair the relay. http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=53888

                yea test the battery just in case.
                if you got the full 12 volts then your all good on the battery
