Battery
Ok my car wont start but since its a manual i can pop start it
and go but the car idols fine and runs fine once you get it started
so do you think its the battery i thknk so beacuse if ti was the alternator
the car wouldnt run period . Has anyone else had to replace there battery
also do you think my AEM pulleys had anything to do with it since they run slower than the stock ones

it aint the pulleys, altho kould be the pulleys depending on who installed them...sounds like the battery or alt......but hey if you stall again, roll the car (get someone to push it) pop it in 2nd gear and start it that way!

Rep Power: 0 Its your battery, if it was your alt your car wouldn't run. Get a new battery it's fried. If you didn't leave your lights on then it could be the alt pulley, if you have a massive stereo system w/o a cap. If you have subs i suggest you either get rid of the pulley, or get a CAP. But you definitly need a new battery. Good Luck.
i had the same problem my pulleys sqeak all the time but it is a low sqeak ppl think its my v2 intake, my battery was ****ed i got it tested at advance and they said they didnt see how my car would start on it, but i got an optima red top, no probs now!!!!!
