Ok so i'm driving my galant for the first time after rebuilding it. I'm trying to get it home from my old apartment.

I start it up, drive to the gas station, put about 3 gallons in it. Start her up again and take off. So my fans also are not hooked up right but the radiator keeps her cool enough to get her home. While on my way, I notice the temp gauge going up, I turn off the car and coast for a few hundred feet. Then I clutch out in 3rd and continue driving, starts to go up again after a few blocks and turn the car off again and coast. Then I try and clutch out again with the key on and nothing. Just decelerating in gear.
The car wont run. I'm like wow, so I take the battery out and figure that the alternator isn't hooked up and its running off the battery. I take it home and charge it for while, take it back and Nothing.

NOTHING works, electrical items, starter, nothing. WTF???
 
dide you look at the fuses? are they corroded or blown. do you have a good connection to the battery.

alot of peopl loot for the big things that cause a problem but overlook something as small as a fuse LOL. i would pu money on blown fuse some where or a toasted battery.
