Weather was in the 40s today and since the time change Sunday it was light out when I got home from work so I finally installed the summit racing hitorque mini starter. With a jump the truck started right up, had to add some gas into the carb since the fuel lines had completely drained out it seemed, it has been sitting for over a month.
One thing to note, I drove down the street hit the throttle a little quick to open it up a bit and it hesitated and stalled. Went to start it and battery was dead. It seems everytime it stalls out like that 9 times out of 10 the battery gets drained. That has me totally stumped?
After a jump I drove a bit lightly, parked it and was able to start it back to back no problems. Even sat with the lights on with it off to see if it drains the battery and it started right up. Anyone have an idea what it could be causing the battery to die like that?
Btw the new starter is smooth as butter, sounds so smooth and quiet compared to the hunk of junk that was in there and cranks the truck right up. Thanks for the recommendation guys!!
