Now the POS won't start. I think the ignition switch is bad or something. The radio only comes on when in the accessory position and it clicks and all the lights dim when I go to start it. I've tried jumping it and everything. Seems like no power is going to the starter or the solenoid or something. Is started up yesterday and died since it hadn't ran in a week, I went to turn it over again and it pulled this crap.

Oh yes lol replaced the starter cable and solenoid today with new heavier duty ones, still not got enough juice to do anything even when the battery says its charged. It's just one they threw in it to sell it to and I'm surprised its lasted that long. Gone throw in a new one Monday as well as a new pair of battery cables, since they're wore out anyhow, might as well upgrade everything.

Yeah it's all pretty ratty from the original rebuild.

This is the gem that was sending power to my starter... Beauty huh was a little long I figure it got up into the manifold at some point and melted the rubber off and they tapped it up and pulled it back
