Len, Looks like our cars 'graduated' from the same class. My car, number 38652, was conceived '12 October - 1 November 1966' and 'despatched' (sic) 15 November 1966. But, my car's a slacker: only 195

I helped a friend jumpstart her Toyota (Corolla, I think; maybe a Camry--who cares ;). A jump started the car immediately, but it barely ran; couldn't even light the dash gauges. The alternator was s

Here's what I surmised: Her alternator had failed/was failing and, of course, the battery was drained by powering the ECU, FI, gauges, lights, etc. When I jumped her car, it started immediately and r

Sounds like you inadvertently performed a 'conversion to negative ground.' I think--well, obviously--the starter would work without being (re-)polarized, but the generator probably--well, obviously--
