I can't believe I'm needing this thread so soon after the 'ran out of diesel deal' a little while ago. Anyways, went to pick up some fencing at a guys house this morning. Truck started fine, ran fine, etc. Started 3 times before the issue arose. Was all finished loading fencing and went to start. It was starting normally but my boot was wet and slipped off of the clutch pedal. Naturally, ignition/starting was halted. Went to start again and nothing. The batteries all of a sudden were very weak. I have checked and swapped around some/all the relays and fuses. I put a new fender mounted starter relay in it. Power was getting down to the starter but the solenoid wasn't kicking in. Pulled the starter off and tried to get it to spin with jumper cables and it wouldn't turn over at all. Took it to Advance and they put it on the test stand and they couldn't get it to turn over either. Went to AutoZone and the same thing. No one had a starter (Nippo one not a Motocraft). Finally found one for $200. Installed it. Took my charger/starter and let it charge for a little bit. It now turns over but refuses to start. It is in this guys backyard and he is clearing Govt quarters in the AM so I need to get this thing out of there ASAP. Please recommend away......Thanks in advance, Odie.
