    Intermittent no crank , battery flickers with bass hit, parasitic draw

    Thank you for the response . I just replaced all the ground cables and power cables. I added an additional ground directly to the starter housing. Unfortunately still have this issue. is the possibility that an aftermarket alarm could cause such an issue? It honestly seems like the starter...

    Update . Pulled the starter and bench tested it. Seems to be working fine. Did a draw test. showed no draw at all . My main concern is the original main starter wire and the ground wire. they both came with the used engine. Im going to replace both wires and cross my fingers. I am also replacing...

    The a/c fan does come on automatically, it is the engine cooling fans i have on a switch. I also have a digital monitor that reads the coolant temp, voltage, and o2 data. I originally tried the thermistor, but kept having issues, so i bought a switch and it has worked well. I will say i found...

    Coolant temp high with a/c running?

    My temp on the 1uz usually runs around 87 to 95 degrees even on the hottest days with my 3 core alum radiator and duel fan setup. But when turning a/c on it climbs to sometimes 104. Is this normal. The compressor is always on i will add when the a/c button is pushed . Im not sure if the...
