Help! The Roach will not start :(
 

Last night, turn the key the seat belt buzzer goes on but none of the engine lights do. Starter does not even crank.

Compression start it and it worked. Started for a couple of times after that.

Tried it again this evening, nada. Compression start did not do it either and as a result the roach is now parked down the block :(

My guess is a bad connection somewhere, but where? Did a search on "no start" but it turned up a ton of non relavant returns.

Help the roach get back to its garage.

OK found a thread that covers this. I will try the following tomorrow.

Swap out DME relay (hit with screw driver first)
Check the dizzy
Jiggle the red cable to battery
Check the yellow cable from the ignition

Anything else? Electrical problems scare me.

Turns out it was a dead/low juice battery. The clock was still running and the seat belt was still buzzin.

I feel like i am talking to myself :)

What did you say? :)
