Annnnnnd, we're back here again.
After I cleaned up the battery terminals, truck was starting fine, and I even ran it a few houses down the road to check in on an FJ-60 I sold to some neighbors.
Bought myself a new timing light with digital tach, and was all excited to work on tuning the carb. Had the
step on the gas pedal for a few min. to help me check the accelerator pump. Went for a float in the river, came back, started the truck once, then BAM, back to electrical issues (I think).
Same symptoms as before, but a couple more clicks from the starter before turning the key did nothing.
Ran through all of the same checks / tests as before, with the same results (except battery terminals are clean).
Where do I head, now?
