yea the battery was run dry (no water inside) the other month because its so old and i didn't bother to check it. Ive got it out charging now so if it works when its charged up its def the battery.
Theres a clicking sound when i turn the key but no attempt at starting

yea the batt is pretty dodgy but would that cause it to just click and not even try to turn over?
cheers for the help

Car started fine this morning then go to start in the arvo and only clicking not even trying to turn over. This happened about a month ago and then next day the car began starting fine up until now. batt is still reading 12-13 volts, so im guessing its the starter motor. I can still roll start it ...

went 2 a workshop today and they had a play, thought it was the clutch.they checked the gbox oil and was fine. said as the clutch wasn't slipping no real need for it to be replaced yet.... might get a second opinion somewhere, any reccomendations??

nah no sound at all (apart from a little squeak from the clutch going in and out)

Ive got a trueno ae101 and when in first gear sometimes and reverse most times, there is a grinding noise when releasing the clutch (about 3/4 of the way out). It sounds like its not in gear but its not as loud as that, but has a whyning grinding sound.
2nd 3rd 4th 5th etc are great, no slips ...

hi, i got an ae101 silvertop and im almost 100% sure i have a broken/lose engine mount. its coming from the drivers side. As there are no places open on a sunday, can anyone give me an estimate on how much is it to fix, or if i can check it somehow?
seems to clunk when on/off on accelerator

hi, i got one of these the other day http://www.parallelimported.co.nz/view.php?item=5733 and it goes pretty well, im running it off a 400wrms amp but its only getting 200w as its a 4 chan and the other 2 channels are running front/ back speakers. Im running the sub in a series ...

hey, sorry to be a nana, but this has been done heaps and ive even asked it myself i posted some pics up last time of where the negative is, but you find the coil and there are two wires coming off it, but i would recommend running it to the instrument cluster as when i have my shiftlight set at ...

yeah i had a look for ecu fault codes, but i dont understand how to even check the code to find what is as fault im a real newbie

umm yeah i guess you could say its "limp" but that doesn't really hhelp nor solve my problem

ok, i just reset the ecu and i started it up, started sweet and idled like it should for about 3 seconds before the check engine light came on and the revs etc dropped.....

Hi, i dont know much about engines for im kinda stumped here sorry.
I was just driving and the engine light came on (trueno 4age 1991) and was suddenly ideling at 500-600rpm. When taking off at the lgihts to go pull over i gave a bit of gas and the car sluggishly reved, but not as fast up, but was ...

sorry, its a trueno 1991 4age Just need to know where the wire comes thru firewall and into gearbox, i cant seem to find the wire

i think my wire is fraying. it sometimes reads and sometimes doens't. Does anyone have an engine diagram or links to, of when there wire goes from, i dont know what to look for in the engine bay, behind the cluster looks all good.

ok, i went to jaycar to get some rca type "sound whinging quietners" but they had sold out, so i went for the biggest shiniest one there which was just under $40 , all you do is put it on your battery then onto the power wirer going to the amp, it did quieten down the whining, but it is still there ...

depends on how old the car is to doesn't it?
i got told my aircon was to old (1991 ae101) and i had to get it all changed, comes to a total of over $1000!!!
if he was talking out his ass, can anyone tell me where to go to get re-gased plz. (north shore)

thanks a lot, i had seen that article before, but being lazy, i like to take the easiest way out of a situation.
and i wrote the novel so people dont ask such questions like "are your rca's next to the power" etc...
thanks for the help.

So has anyone actually tried one of these 'noise filters'??

yeah no sht.
so, a) tell me where to get one of these magical annoying sound removers from and
b) how much?
cheers

Yes, i know what you are all about to say, but ive tried it may times.
I have my amp under the passenger seat. two sets of rcas, from the head unit, run up under the glove box and down the passenger side and then under the seat. my power runs from the battery, across the engine bay (from bottom ...

what kind of amp is it? Im pretty sure it will be the amp, i had this same problem with my front speakers when i had a crappy little amp, but now ive got a better amp and it doesn't do it. amps have a feature called soft turn on/off or something along thoes lines, obviously yours doesn't.
