Re: IML: Starting my 64 Imperial

[PAUL WENTINK <randalpark@xxxxxxx>]

I'd try to turn it over by hand before spending any money. From the 
sound of a recent post, the car is mostly apart (?) Maybe the engine 
has seized, and if you don't really want it anymore, it would be good 
to know now if the worst has happened.

Rather than throwing a bunch of parts at the car, is there a way to 
test the relay/starter to see which may be bad? I imagine I can take 
the battery to somewhere that sells batteries and have them test it, 
however, after sending the email, I realized that I could connect one 
of my known good battery to the Imperial using my jumper cables, and 
when I did it, I got no change, so I presume that the battery probably 
isn't the problem in the case (though it probably is a problem waiting 
to happen). 
 
Thanks,
