Quoting mscatchell:
There's a whole story behind the issue. But I literally would have to type a story. On a more recent note, Friday night I pulled it out the garage no prob. Went a hr later to start, click nothing (no crank no start) Put the jumper box, starts no prob. Go for drive, only lasted 5-10 mins. Car literally just shuts off and dies. Then the whole part from 1st post with driving back with the jumper box on.
Unforunately for me 2 autozone's in my area - their alternator testers don't work. That's why I haven't removed it for testing.
But they told me the battery is good (12.83v), if battery is good why no cranking?
I've had the car 4 months, battery that originally came with it was 4 yrs old was replaced recently after a no start one night in the garage. Autozone said battery was no good
The car used to start up from time to time no problem, after I initially started driving the car after it got delivered off the truck.
So when I first got the car, I figured battery was weak from sitting. I've never had the charging systems checked since it started everytime after that.
This is my 1st 4g63 so with the car being a 87' JDM I don't know what to expect with the alternator,
I can turn a wrench just don't wanna waste my time.
If you have a Galant VR-4, especially a JDM Galant VR-4 then your car is a MMC. It is not a DSM in any shape or form.
