finally after 2 years im almost there, got the motor in and now this i searched but couldn;t really come up with anything...

It clicks when i turn the key and the belts slowly turn for a second or 2 but it will not turnover...

It's a new battery and i tried a jump just to make sure.

Is it flooded ? or not getting any fuel ? I'm lost and I already did my fair share of thinking with all the other crap.

any opinions would be great ! I really wanna break the motor in and drive it.

Thanks,

Scott

 

bump...

anyone, please ????

 

I sometimes have that problem too but I dont know why...

 

Try cleaning the battery connection with brass brush, and make sure they are hooked up tightly. That worked for me.

 

Is the clicking comming form your starter?
Sounds like your battery is low if the starter is clicking. Sure its got a full charge?

 

Is that the only possibility ???

Make sure the pullies (power steering, AC, air pump, Idler etc.) turn freely with the belt off and are not frozen for some reason.

That sounds like a dead battery BUT, since you got a new one, your starter might be dead instead.

Try cleanning the battery terminals /\ like someone already suggested /\, and put some oil on the terminals for better contact and to protect from future corroding (I learned this from an old mech, a cheap way to protect from corrosion on terminals).

Also very important is to check the negative where it connects to the chassis and the positive to the relay/fuse block for proper contact.

Hope that helps...
