I'm in hopefully for after the kid comes here.

I still need to hook the hatch wiring back on and have it inspected.

 

You could have the first kid ever delivered on RC property, you're not thinking of the possibilities.

When's that again?

 

Anyone have a spare starter I could use to assure mine it ded & buy? Fairly certain my starter is done did ded.

Have power to starter and have power when key is turned (signal wire). Gave er a few good smacks but no luck. Occasionally will growl and attempt to turn it over but doesn't have the schwooptie.

 

Where are u from again

 

I'm in the lovely smol town of Robesonia. 19551 zip.

 

It would be way easier to check if you're getting proper power, and maybe try jumping the terminals. If you question the power, used a set of jumpers or a jump box straight to the starter.

 

Most auto parts stores can test alternators. Just take it to one of them

 

I have power at starter, along with signal power (test light tested). I also have solid ground (test light tested). I jumped the starter posts as well (with BFS). She'll give some clicks, or sound like it tries to turn over the engine but can't.

 

I had the same trouble last year. There was power where it should have it and the connections were all good but it would just click and sometimes not even that.

I just bought a remanned starter and slapped it on. I was amazed at how much faster it would crank and fire up after the install

 

Yeah, basically.... As long as your engine isn't locked up, and voltage at the starter doesn't plummet when you try to crank it, sounds like a starter. I usually voltage drop test the starter lead, but I don't find them to be too problematic in the xj's

 

I'd like to think the engine isn't locked up... but it did sit for a solid year almost 2 before I jump started it last. Jumped it twice to move it and now shes like, there's just no whey.

 

Anyone going to NAXJA's Rocktoberfest in October at AOAA?

 

Sup y'all

 

Ya know. Break fix repeat.
