Son of intermittent no start - Part II 200 1993

posted by  someone claiming to be Robb McC on  Sat Jul 13 17:50 CST 2013 [RELATED]

Just went out and split back the insulation at all 4 of those cable ends (+ - battery and block ground and + at starter) and no green to be found on the wire or inside the lugs. I did set up a vom on the battery and noted when I start to crank it dips to about 10 v then back up when it starts to 14. I wonder if that is normal. Darn I'm tempted to separate out both cables from battery to ground and battery to starter and look for weak spots or bends now. Of course it's starting fine today, this is just in preparation for the next time it does not start. So do you think dropping to 10 v for a second is significant?
