Help Me Get My Car To Turn Over

[ardie]

Ok so as a few of you might know I have been taking my car back to stock and today I finally got it all finished. So I went to prime the Lines by disconnecting the CAS and then turning it over and then my heart sinks. I turn the key and it makes that crappy really fast tick tick tick sound that it makes when your battery is flat.

I had a quick look but couldnt see what was wrong so I decided Id throw this up here and have a brainstorm with some of the fellow minds on SAU so please, any ideas you have please shoot them at m,e as the new owner is expeciting his car tomorrow night and I dont want to dissapoint him

i had to think for a moment.....

this thick thick thick means that ur starter leting u know that hes almost dead(not enough sparks). the last moment to go to the shop and buy new one is now, try with hiting it and starting in the same moment usually it working 1-3 times and its dead 4ever. hope u know where is it cos i wont be able to explain it to you (not good enough in eng)

90% its starter

good luck

You've answered your own question. Try jump-starting the freekin' thing.

Sounds like batt flattery old kid

Also check the wiring from your starter motor as well, people sometimes overlook the smallest of things trying to finish.

Worst case scenario if you hook another battery up and its still happening, pull the starter out and bench test it to rule it out

Yeah, i tried using a battery out of a mates car and it didnt work, im going to pull his 180 up to it and try jump start it.

Bear in mind here that im not looking to actually START the car, I need it to prime all the lines, you know, when you disconnect the CAS

[ardie]

ok so I got it to turn over with the help of my mates 180, but then! once the lines were primes, I reconnected the CAS and went to start her up and it didnt want to start firing. I checked all the idle gear and the throttle setup and all thats fine, same with the cas obviously. I out the stock ECU back in last night., but its not like thats rocket science. Only thing I was thinking that it may be is the AFM as I had to harwire it again as it was hardwired onto the old q45 and I didnt have the original plug.
