Did some work on the falcon, changed oil, topped radiator and got the brake lights To go hang out at san onofre and catch some waves.
Anyways, Drove the falcon down to san clemente Without incident. Pulled into a burger joint. The falcon was steaming...I guess I over filled the radiator and it was squirting out the over flow valve (the hosing for the overflow valve was gone). I pop the doghouse, let it cool down. Come back after an hour and try to start the falcon but it wont start...lights come on, I turn the key and it tried briefly to turn over, then stops...
I'm thinking that maybe the starter got wet from the overflowing radiator? I dunno...maybe in the a.m. after it dries out it'll start? I can only hope. I'm 70miles from home. Ha!!! Crashing at a friends place tonight.
Any thoughts? Think I could push start it?
Thanks guys!!!
