Default shabu wont start

this time, no modifications i swear!


at work today she had a hesitation. not liek a dead battery but just a took it a sec to realise it was trying to be started.


got home
was getting ready to head to the wash and nothing....


checked every fuse

checked battery juice ( even tryed the 100A start feature )

unplugged and bridged the clutch pressure switch.

nothing

i got it to crank over once, but then i shut it off to try again and nothing.


any ideas? its makeing it ever harder to love shabu like i once did.

Did you test the battery to see how many volts it had. I'm thinking a dead battery or dead starter selonoid.

you could borrow my fnp .45acp...youll have 15rounds to finish er...if your battery is charged i have no clue...starter would be first, fuses, fuel pump, alternator should be fine, wires and connections from key, to battery and starter...i dunno.
