Great that you can fit the 33’s under there, they aren’t narrow!

So car is back out of commission with some sort of electrical problem. I honestly can’t stand wiring,would rather shit in my hand and clap.

Problem is;
Was driving along and my gauges turned off and on, then followed by my sound system turning off, then the car turning off when I had to come to a stop. Got a jumpstart and the car started back up, and managed to get it home. Once I arrived home, turned the car off and tried to start it again, just make the clicking noises. On the way home car was a little spluttery. No battery light on dash, no lights on dash. I’ve just upgraded from a 85a to a 110a alternator last week, I replaced the starter motor last year, have a new 600cca battery.
Anyone else encountered this problem before? Will just start checking terminals and wires soon.

Sounds like a ground problem, they are never fun to find.

So some how jumpers still managed to get the car running after it wouldn’t start by itself. That would still lead to a ground issue you think? I’m honestly hopeless with wires.

It means your battery is not getting charged.

Check and recrck alternator. Ask 2nd opinion if needed. Those things are annoying.

But thats better over charging.. as you can burn a whole lot more stuff

Looking good mate. Does Trotty still make the dump pipes? How do you get hold of him?
