Re: Hot starter motor

No I had to take the truck back to the painter to fix all the problems that are springing up in the paint. So it will be a while. I talked to the guy that installed my new wiring. He recommended all the things that you all did.
1. check the timing.
2. Check the battery.
3. Installed a thicker battery cable.
4. Connect the bay ground to the starter bolt instead of the block.
5. Put some heat wrap around the starter motor.
He is right down the street from the painter so while it’s there he’s going to check the battery and also have an engine tooner that he uses on his builds come over and toon the engine. It is going to be a while before I get the truck back. I will try to remember to update you all.
