No start.
Batteries are good. 12.3v
Alternator is good. 14.2v running
Can be jump started.
This is the firetruck I bought before Christmas. (TBI 360/435/205)
We jump started it and drove it home 100 miles on Saturday. I parked it in the driveway, shut it off and tried to restart it immediately. Click click click.
VFD put a second battery in it for the winch and JOL equipment with a Cole Hersee selector and disconnect switch in the cab. I can use either battery, or both. Doesn't matter; it just clicks. I checked all the connections and (shot them with lube for good measure) they were clean and tight. It was hard to really get to the starter with all the undercarriage piping, so I think that's my next target, but I wanted to run it by you guys to see what you thought.
I have a shop manual, but the extra equipment is obviously not in it..
Thanks in advance.
