edelbrock 1406 + intake + head rebuild ~20k ago
This car is my daily driver for a couple years now. Very reliable. Starts first try and chokes fine. Recently parked at a restaurant for dinner, are and when I came back out to leave - the engine just turned over and over with no sign of starting. Not even a putter. I killed the battery, got a jump and ended up killing the starter trying to get it running.
Fast forward to now and I’ve replaced the following, in order, 1-by-1:
I’ve bought an ignition lock cylinder because I see that’s the only thing I haven’t swapped and saw some saying it might be a culprit. Honestly, I’ve got no clue what to do if that doesn’t work.
Any ideas?
