Ground wire getting hot when cranked, won't start...hrm
Well, I just got done doing some winter mods, including a RS bumper, new brakes, new top, center console w/ guages, etc. Now the damn car won't start. It cranks, but that's it. The ground wire, right where it attaches to the battery, is getting very warm (even hot) ONLY while I crank it over. I assume this is not normal. I did relocate the battery to the smuggler's box... could I possibly have a bad ground? Could this cause it to not start? It's cranking over just fine; does the ignition coil require even more juice than the starter? Not sure what else could cause this. I didn't do anything in the engine bay yet (dropping the motor this week, but wanted to start it one last time before I did...good thing to or I'd assume the problem was in the engine bay). I did minor electrical stuff; disconnected the A/C, foglights, cruise control, installed a daytime headlight relay, a cooler fan, etc...nothing that should effect the car starting. Any ideas???
