MY ROD GOT OUT Member 434 Member For: 14y 7m 28d Posted 06/10/12 09:14 AM Author Share Posted 06/10/12 09:14 AM Ok so went to go for drive bout 1/2hr ago (bout 1hr after driving it previously) and it did the slow crank ie turned key and didn't even get a full crank in, just got stuck for a second or two then car started. So I turned it off and quickly got voltmeter onto battery to test draw and got my misses to crank it.... Car cranked quick as!! Like it had a new battery haha dammit! Voltmeter read 10.9 and went straight up to 13.9. Normal?

MY ROD GOT OUT Member 434 Member For: 14y 7m 28d Posted 08/10/12 01:20 PM Author Share Posted 08/10/12 01:20 PM What about all of these "hi torque" ones I'm seeing on eBay? Haven't done a starter in a bf, pretty simple? Don't have a hoist.
