new to me s13 no start problem searched
just got a hatch and it has a de ka in it. Was driving it home which was about 2 hours, and it died while losing all power about 40 miles from home but it was starting from a jump. got the battery tested and it is good. replaced the cables and terminals. i may redo the ground when i move my battery to the back but i just want the car to start. i read it could be the relay or switch when i go to start it i heard one click idk if it was the interlock relay or the starter and i saw a spark once by the battery. i'm thinkin it's either the starter or the relay... It could be the ground as well too though so i'm gonna grind the paint off where it's bolted and maybe try jumping the clutch switch but how do you do that? i just want to rule everything out and i read the thread where SRpowered had three tests that i will have to re read and try out, but any other suggestions? i thought it was the alternator before since it shut off but i found that the cable coming off the distributor to the (can't think of what it's called that controls spark) came off. so i think that's what made it die.
