car won't start!!!!

motosparky · 12-13-2006, 04:02 PM

I ran 12 gauge wire from the top post of the battery to a push button switch I bought from Pep Boys (heavy gauge style) that I located just below the hood opening mechanism then back out and spliced directly into the wire that plugs into the starter on the bottom side. (it is easily pulled off the starter and I had plenty of room to work)
I just turn the key on and if the Bi### doest start, I just push the button and on my way.
It just did it this morning but not after getting gas or stopping for coffee. As I said, there is no pattern and I am an electrical engineer : )
Good luck !

so i'm guessing it was the negative terminal on the battery?
