no not lately. my starter wont turn the engine over. ive checked it and its good but its just not getting enough power to turn the engine over. so im going to buy an MSD blaster2 coilpack. im hoping that will work

my question was if anyone else getting a swap from hmotors had this same problem.

Starter not getting enough juice......buy new coilpack......I don't see the connection. Are you sure you should be doing a motor swap?

the starter doesnt get juice from the coil pack, lol. its hooked straight to the battery. if the starter is good, then your battery is dead/low/bad. if the battery is fine, then there is something wrong with either timing, fuel, spark, or compresion.

nothing. i even jump the starter and nothing. all that happens when i turn my key over is the lights come on my gague cluster and i hear a bell sound

when i turn the key to ignition nothing happens. i do however hear my main relay click, we switched mine with his to see if it was bad and it isnt the problem. then we jumped my battery with his battery and that didnt solve it. the starter still didnt turn over, it didnt even make a noise. you guys think my engine might be locked up? i got it from hmotors and they have a startup garantee, so that would kinda be a longshot.
