Re: Dodge Stealth Problems and Questions

Well we are thinking we are having starter problems...

It is rumored that the Stealths don't have the initial priming system like DSMs have when you turn the ignition on. The fuel pumps turn on when the car starts cranking over.

SO... now to get the car to crank over. We are using the good welding wire 0/0 for the positive and now we are going to do that for the negative. It is fused on the positive side.

Hopefully all this is just a grounding issue but from the same rumor told us that there is a starter connection that fails. Any thoughts on this? The Relay for the starter clicks (located in the fuse box) on so if there was a break of a connection it would be from there to the starter right? It is just that the top connection for the silanoid is kind of hard to get to. There is a front mount intercooler installed now and I am wondering if a wire was unplugged for fitment. There is just no sound coming from the starter which is why I suspect something...
