So I took a trip to Pick n Pull, got one and threw it in the car. Car started right up, ran decent (timing a little off). I let it run for awhile and then shut it off. When I went to start it up again (maybe 2 or 3 minutes later) it wouldn't start!<br /><br />The car sat for about 45 minutes or so, cooled down and then fired back up again. It runs until I turn it off then I have to wait for it to cool down before it will start. <br /><br />Any ideas on what the problem could be? Thanks guys. <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#f7f7f7"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>9cobra7 jocks dmi</b> <br /><small>Member # 7277</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2011,7,9,1,30,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> no crank no start? <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#dedfdf"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>MustangNate</b> <br /><small>Member # 4559</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2011,7,9,11,8,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> It'll just crank and crank.

The car has the same issue. Another thing I've run into, I left the battery hooked up on accident and the next day it was completely dead. We're talking a brand new Interstate battery, completely drained.<br /><br />Could this be related issues? <br /> </font> </td></tr> </table></td></tr></table> <br /> <br />
