I HATE my old car!
I love that commercial.
When it comes to my Tempo, however, I really do.
The front right tire hit a curb the other night. It drove home ok, pulling to the side more than normal. No, *I* was not driving.
Went out the next morning, wouldn't start. No lights, nothing. It's just...dead. I figured the battery is drained somehow.
Pulled the RX-7 up next to it to jump it. Hooked up the cables, nothing. Normally the driver's automatic seatbelt would be grinding away, hopelessly trying to move the belt. Not this time.
Wouldn't crank, wouldn't nothing.
My question then is, with jumper cables connected, shouldn't SOMETHING electrical work? The battery cables aren't loose, but aside from that, it's had a couple fender benders, enough to guess that possibly some wires are not where they outta be.
