wont start - what is it?
« on: November 24, 2006, 04:41:16 PM »

The 73 S6 Dodge Dart Swinger wouldn't start using the ignition key.  You would have to put the key in the ON position, and jump out the starter to make it run.   By turning the key to start...nothing happened at all.   Question:  what do you think the problem is???


I found out problem....and it was fixed.  But What is your best guess on what the problem was?Huh    I post the answer a little later....

i'll say bad starter relay.  If you try to crank it and the starter wont roll over....but your ignition circuit is HOT, 9 times out of 10 its the relay, especially if you can jump across the relay with a screwdriver and the starter will roll over.
