Hey guys,
The last two times I went to start my 580K it was tough. Turning the ignition would just slowly turn the motor over. I assumed the battery was shot, put a charger on it overnight and it only got to 60%. I bought a new battery and installed it. Yes, my polarity is correct. Yes my cables are good. Same thing happens when I go to start it, only now the lug below the starter glows red, the starter gets super hot and starts smoking. What's the deal? Please don't say the starter is shot!!!
