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:

    Car Won't Start AFTER STALLING

    Last time it was being driven, the clutch was released too early in first, causing the motor to lurch violently and stop. I checked the battery terminals, checked for vacuum leaks, nothing, but it still wouldn't crank. We tried push starting it, but it didn't want to start. I'm gonna get more into it later tonight when I get off, this is a repost because my old one got deleted (non descriptive title xP), but I wanted to see what you guys think.

    Thanks.

    Oh, the dash lights wouldn't work, headlights wouldn't work, it wouldn't crank/sputter/anything, BUT the brake lights did work.

    By not "cranking", do you mean the starter is not working?

      Have you checked the fuses? Your electrical problem makes it sound like fuses.

      30.0 MPG, AC on, aggressively driving around 90.

        I'm not sure if it's the starter, I wasn't having any problems with the car starting before. If it was the starter, I would still have power to the dash, no?

        And which fuses would those be? The ones in the upper left part of the engine bay? Or are there others?

            There are others, and I would check them all.
            The others are located right next to your left foot while driving.

              Replaced all fuses. And nothing. Does anybody have a COMPLETE checklist of all components involved in ignition/interior lighting??

              So far I have:
              -Fuses
              -Starter
              -Alternator
              -Battery



              I know I might be vague with the first one, so ANY sort of details will be appreciated greatly!
