Painless Wiring Hot Shot starter relay/bump start kit

Finally got around to installing the painless wiring hot shot starter relay the other day. I had always had the intermittent starting problem on my '89 4runner and was tired of push starting it Works great and starts every time...even with a little odyssey PC680 batt.

wiring is a mess...ill clean it up later.

What exactly was your truck doing? I might have the same problem all it does is click.

Thanks

sometimes it would start, sometimes it would not do anything when the key was in the crank position. searched a little and saw that this was a common problem with these trucks (have only had mine for ~8months)...also came across this very helpful site

Wow all I did was make a new 2Ga P+ wire and some new 2Ga grounds and my clicks went away. That is a cool remote start tho.
