I have recently de flooded and placed new park plugs in - fired up fine - purrrrred like a kitten zooming down the roadways on the sundaay afternoon. Its an 86 sky blue - sun roof - non turbo with body kit rear spoiler - fittipaldi rims ....

Anyway - after the starting problem was fixed - i hope - now my battery wont hold - Im assuming that the Alternator is bad - thats my first check! - but i wasnt sure if there was a known short in the 86 and up models that i may also need to look into?

 

Have the alternator and battery checked to be sure. Make certain the belt is tight. Battery terminals are clean. After the above check out fine, you can then check for a drain if necessary with a meter.
