Another weekend, another adventure Saturday morning I cleaned the garage up some while I thought I was waiting for someone to come buy my Sniper setup, after that I decided to adjust the fuel pressure with the new fuel map so that it should run better. That went pretty smoothly as did getting the bluetooth setup on the air ride and headlights with phone that controls the Edlebrock. Run it to Sams to get it topped off with fuel since I was thinking it was low, come back and just as I get out in front of my house it stalls and won't start again.
As I am tinkering around it is apparently a g body parade cause I had 3 different ones pass me by as I am working on the car. So while looking around I realize it looks like the wire from the starter is starting to melt some at the junction block. I feel around the wire a bit and feels like there is a knick in the jacket, while waiting for my buddy to come and help figure it out I get it to start and move into the driveway a minute before he gets there. I have him look over what I came up with, he agrees so we decide to run down the shop and make a new wire to run from the starter to the distribution block. The problem ends up that both the large gauge and small gauge wire are on the same terminal so I have to leave it for the time being but run the one we made as well. Get it running better but still having the low reading on the Edlebrock for the battery. But decide its good enough and I take it to a show that night and the following morning without major incident (had a couple of stalls here and there). After the show yesterday I decide to kill some time by cruising around until going to meet my buddy at his shop at 2 to put the transmission in the GTO.
Get .2 of a mile from the shop and the car stalls, does the slow crank for a second and then everything goes out. We end up dragging the car with his truck down to his shop after a neighbor comes offer and offers a tow strap (ended up seeing some cool stuff in his shop while finding the tow strap). I have power at the battery and the 2 posts I put to be able to jump it if it dies, but no power anywhere else so can't pop the trunk to get in there. I am guessing the big fuse I just replaced popped when the wire we made the day before must have got warm from driving and fell enough to lay on the header. So gonna have to remake a wire and run it and change out the terminal end so that I can get rid of the other wire with the knick next time we get around to the car.
