Good News and Bad News-No Start
Well the good news is I fixed the Vacuum leak....the bad..I am getting the no start. I originall ythought it was the battery, once replaced the car started right back up. Then this week with the new battery I go the no start again. The battery is showing 3.68AMPs and 12.42 volts when tested with a Fluke meter.
I notice that when I push in the clutch there is a volt drop...but not sure that means the Clutch relay is working or not. I am guessing starter, any other guesses? Ignition switch?

Re: Good News and Bad News-No Start
1. Jumper out the Clutch safety switch.
2. Replace Starter relay under dash. 3. Install my patented "Dreaded No Start Cure". TomC "Crabs"

Re: Good News and Bad News-No Start
Would I be seeing a voltage drop when I depress the clutch if the relay/switch was bad? Car started right back up when I went out again.
Any opinions.....

Re: Good News and Bad News-No Start
Ive got a write up at home on how to jumper out the clutch switch, I'll post it when i get home. it's very simple and just like pulling the LTPWS it's something you should do

Re: Good News and Bad News-No Start
Replaced the starter no more issues, Marc Haibeck agreed with me that if when the clutch is pushed in, the voltage drops, switch is fine.
We will see if I get any issues later.
