Classic Car Fan Posted June 17 Share Posted June 17 The car has been sitting many years, with the spark plugs out the engine turns over fast and has spark, with the plugs in the car the engine will barely turn over. The battery is new and the connections at the battery are clean, could it be the starter. I am a newbie at this car. Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alsancle Posted June 17 Share Posted June 17 Put a meter on the main wire to the starter and make sure it is getting 12 plus Vs. Also, try running a jumper from the negative post of the battery to directly to the starter and try spinning it. That would indicate a bad ground if it works better. Otherwise, might be a tired starter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
