89 Camaro RS starting issues post starter and battery fix

You can get the battery tested at Autozone,Advance, and Oreilys for free. Later, once you find out if the battery is alright,and if you can get the car started, drive back to one of the stores and get the starter tested on the car. Or you can pull the starter and take it along with the battery and have both benchchecked.

You could have timing issues in the Camaro which would make it hard to turn over. But the v-8 Dodge usually has a gear system in their starters that increases the Torque in the starter drive. This feature can account for the ease of starting the Dodge with the Camaro battery.

Also check your starter Relay in the Camaro. You may be losing Voltage before the juice reaches the starter with a fried Relay.

Hope my solution helps.

Check the battery posts for corrosion. You can pour Coke on it while using a wire brush to clean the cables.
If this isn't the issue, then it is most likely your starter. Your starter is located on you passenger side right next to your header. Tap on it with a hammer while having someone simultaneously try and start the car. If this works then you will need to replace your starter in the near future.

check the key I have 1992 camaro rs I took it some where and parked it came out and went to start it and it didnt do anything key would turn over no sound no lights nothing. My key had that anti left chip pretty exspensive to replace key needs to entergrated into the comupter. Just a thought.

check the battery have it checked akso your starter

Check the ground cable from the battery to engine and from the battery to body/chassis. Let me know if you need any other help.

if battery and conectors are very clean and tight,check for bad ground to engine from battery,,also fusable links off of starter or positive small post near fuses, important,,,is the alternator charging ? and have u tried a new battery? voltage should read 13.50 to 14.25 while running 12.5 to 12.65 when not running

Definitely you can save by buying used. Check for local auto dismantlers in your area. Be sure to ask them what kind of mileage the car had on it when they pulled the tranny. Also replace filter and pan gasket while it's out.

are your battery post bolts clean and tight, my 89 rs ran fine untill i decided i wanted shiny new battery bolts, when i put them in and tightened them down my car had no power at all, i checked how tight they were, and they were TIGHT so i wiggled the black cable and re tightened it and bam my lights turned on, tryied starting it, and it started, sometimes you just gotta make sure the connection is really good, not just how tight it is, also check your ground wires, there are a few but the main 2 are located at the front pass side next to the batt, and on the back firewall going from the bottom pass head to the firewall, hope that helps, if not comment back

So found the problem it was the seilnoid on the wasnt working properly store said good put it back hit with small hammer fired up so just replaced whole strarter now fires first time sounds awesome had lot of trouble tracking it down went threw new battery's thinking that was prOblem but was bad starter unit try this maybe will help u to

most likelly you fuel pump relay stuck close try to replace it,
and also look for posible bypass circuit installed to run fuel pump all the time, if you bought the car with the problem may be some one by paaseed but if not the replace the fuel relay
