Problems starting
I'm not sure if it's the starter but figured I'd put a video up to see if any of you have encountered the same noise / problem when starting their car.
The video is of my jumping my Firebird with my Bonneville and just getting clicking noises from the bird.

Re: Problems starting
What would cause a bad connection all of a sudden when the car hasn't moved?

Re: Problems starting
X2 dont know what could cause it but thats what it sounds like. Most of the time its the terminal on the battery grab the wire and try to turn it on the terminal tighten it if need be or else ur battery could be shot too. What are you jumping it with?
