Help! I need the lists collective wisdom. I drove my 260Z this morning to my kids hockey game. When I went to leave I turned the key and nothing. Dead silence. No hums, no fuel pump, no lights no radio... I cleaned the poitive terminal which looked clean except for a little corrosion on the outside of the clamp bolt. the ground looked fine and tight. Nothing chaned when I tried to start it. I tried to jump it and I had a hugh arc that melted a spot on the terminal. I came home and searched the treads and the closest I found was a "Dead Short" in a battery. So I pulled a battery from my 240z that was on a charger and installed it. Still nothing. Then the ran came and I am home again with out the Z. The Z was having a hard time with the starter each morning as it seemed to draw a lot of power to get it to start spinning. Once it spun the starter acted normally. My Z is an early 260Z with a 2.8 short block and an E31 head and MSD electronic ignition. Electric fan conversion is about the extent of electric modifications. Any ideas whoul;d be great, Thanks, JohnB Chicago
