Subject: The other day when I went...

Question
The other day when I went to leave, my car would do nothing when I tried to start it.  It's a '79 Olds cutlass cierra.  battery cables are clean & tight, fuses are all good,battery has full charge, dash lights & outside lights all working,and it won't even boost off.  Any suggestions why this might be happening?  Or where or what to try next?  thank you so much, karla

Answer
Karla ,

Really give your terminal cables a good look over . Check the engine ground as well as the positive that feeds back to the solenoid . On that note you may have a bad starter solenoid.

Karla if you have any more questions please feel free to ask . Don't forget to rate my response to you .

Cheers,

Ed McKenna
