maybe you can come help me with it.. do you know alot about them?

i am looking for alot of help to get it to run well then i am hopefully going to get the body repaired this summer (trust me it needs it and would be worth it)

i am not talking just paint, i am talking stripdown and beadblast rust repair, straightn frame (if necessary) and re-assemble, prime and paint.

i am putting a 95 DE into my 90 chassis..

the part i am having trouble with is getting the car to run reliably..

when i bought it, it didn't run and didn't stop (and all have gas problems)

so i have done more matnience mods over anything.

2 batteries,
alternator,
plugs,
fule filter,
front disc,
front caliper,
front pads,
fuses (some of them like the alt),
battery cables,
thats about it..

i know i need a new intake hose, it is riped where it has the wavy rubber right before the throttle body..

but besides that, i think now that its a starter problem.

as when i go out and start it (or try to at that fact) it wont even turn over.

if i jump it, it starts great.

battery tests at 14.2 when its on, and when its off it tests at 7.2 which indicates a good battery. also, it runs 14.2 from the alt to the battery when it is on.
