It has to be fusible link wire. Fusible link wire is a special wire that burns out at a specified Amperage, so that it burns out first and saves the rest of your system. Looks like this: http://www.madelectrical.com/catalog/fusible-link.shtml you can get it at most auto parts stores...

The solenoid cant be bad if you are feeding 12 Volts to it off the battery and it starts the car!! Before you throw any parts at it, make sure your alarm isnt killing your starter. Close all the doors, lock it, and unlock it with the key, to disarm the alarm. I have heard of people...

Okay, I just looked at the diagram for the 86.5's and its showing a fusible link, not a fuse. Thats why it smoked. Ill guess your fusible link has burnt up, like its supposed to when you have a short. Take that loop of wire and pull on it pretty hard, if it stretches, or comes apart, its...

Is it labeled "ALT" on the fusebox cover where that wire is?

Its the blue one on the top left

Its in the fuse box under the hood. Yea, you will have that fuse on an 86.5. Its a fuse but its a square and it has a little glass window to see if its blown. Ill see if i can find a pic real quick

alt fuse should be blown. Its the blue square one. You have to remove the fuse box and unbolt it from the bottom.

Yea, youre probably right... you cant really see what they hit. Just funny how slow they are going and still roll it.

Thanks for the comments guys! Well, I went to the range today. Needless to say, a good gun cant cure a poor shot! Heres the damage:

I finally got my pistol back from Wilson Combat today. I have been wanting to be able to post to the official gun thread for so long, well now i can! Here it is, my Wilson Combat Springfield 1911 A-1 I havent got a chance to shoot it, but the guy who test fired it at Wilson said it...

Im with you there, nothing like a good looking bead on your custom parts. cjsupra90, that jig system sounds interesting, Id like to see some pics or something of how youre doing that.

Thanks man, appreciated!

Awesome, thanks for the tips guys, I think ill end up finding a used band saw somewhere for cheap.

Hey Jon, I just recently became Master certified in the automotive series A1-A8, in the truck series T1-T8, and LT1. I too was pretty nervous before I had ever taken any tests, so I only signed up for the ones I felt I knew the best, and passed them easily. If you are going to tech...

I have made lots of custom exhaust systems, hardpipes etc, and I am just wondering what you guys are using to cut the mandrel bends perfectly strait, yet at the required angles, to make a butt weld. I know there has got to be an easier way than how I do it. I have been using a marker to draw...

Thats the pressure sender for the oil pressure gauge. Its just a pipe thread fitting. You can take it out, put some pipe thread sealant or teflon tape on there and screw it back in pretty snug.

SBC in a MK2, sounds like a monster! Where can I see some pictures of that car? Speedway used to be dominated by muscle cars back in the day when imports werent so popular. There used to be a lot of sweet cars out there. Now its pretty much a giant speed trap.

Haha whatevea Dylan, everyone knows you still hold that title around here. Well you cant win anywhere I guess, look whats coming down right now!

Yes the desert is very nice this time of year. Im not much of a party animal, but maybe we could get out to SIR for some drag racing or something. I need an excuse to drive the supra...
