Starting problems.
When I first start my restored 1970 ford pick up,every things good.
But after a quick stop at a store, it won't restart for some time.
This has been a pain in the butt since I got the truck.
It has new battery cables, new solenoid and starter.
The battery has had a load test done on it and worked great.
The truck has a newer 1989, fuel injected 302 and a aod trany.
Which all the works came out of a 1989 Lincoln.
Anyway I decided to build a heat shield for the starter to see if
it may be getting to hot, from the stock exhaust.
I'm just using some old sheet metal, I bent to a half moon shape,
then I'm gonna weld some tabs on to hold up off every thing.
Anyone else have this problem with your stuff and how did you
fix the problem?
Thanks Kurt
You're welcome Mike, glad it worked out for you. Roger, it's taken a few years but my inventory of excess parts has shrunk a fair bit from 1 1/2 garage stalls to about an eight by eight space. ...
