Re: starting 65 sport fury w 383

One other thing that I have found several times is- the cable that goes to 
the starter, the nut beneath the cable end on the stud can loosen up. If you 
can wiggle the cable and the stud moves with it, that is most likely the 
problem......................MO

Thanks Tom.  I am getting to work on the cables tomorrow.  I jumped the 
starter out of the car and it ran and spun fine...

I agree with Gary and Rich, definitely sounds like Charging or Battery 
problem.

Sounds like first thing is to get rid of the clamped cable and replace with 
a correct length cable.  Clean the terminals on the battery, make sure 
battery cells are filled up and charge the battery with a battery charger. 
Then install the new cables.  If Click persists, could try jumping the 
starter relay.  If still click, with no start, then it might be time to 
replace battery.  Also, track down any additional wires hooked to the relay 
or solenoid that shouldnt be there.
