      Yea they tested the battery the first day and again today and its fine. Inspected Cables and followed them as much as I could didn’tfind anything suspect. So I cranked it and it started right away with no issue so I went ahead and replaces the cables just bc its been buffing me how short they are………but are you ready for the kicker guys………when I go to the garage I see I have q newly fresh 3 min old coolent leak from the lower rad hose…..ahahaahahaha.
      And the people at my local AutoZone are good people ill admit there are some people who parents should have through of swallowing them to prevent them being conceived but the manager and his regional know there stuff especially when it comes to Chevys. They helped me alot with my tpi converson..

          A: I have only owned the car for about one year and since I owned it have not touched or replaced the starter. But I will mention I have always felt the battery cable have always been tight and seem to fall short. So for the 20 bucks and the fact its always bugged the hell out of me ima replace them when I gonto AutoZone for get a slow recharge right now.

              Great video ETCG, I have a feeling this video will spark a lot of discussion and debate.

              Personally I’m am not to professional tech., just a culinary graduate and a DIY’er who from time to time will pick up a few bucks working on friends cars. And I do believe that if turning a wrench is how you provide for your family then it would be foolish not to invest in quality tools. As a chef I need my knifes and it wasn’t easy to save up 3 grand for a 4 knife set, but boy did it pay off. At the same time I have had a 6 month old half inch snap on sock split in half trying to break a lug nut free, but my el chepo from HF which I still have did the job. Here is what I learned about HF tools they are a hit or miss and what I do is once I break the HF tool then I know I used it enough and its time to invest in something of better quality. BTW can’t tell you how many professional shops I see using their HF 3 ton jacks 😛
