Ive just fitted the battery, connection etc and im not getting any power to the car...ive tested the fuse box and im getting 0.00 volts...battery is reading 12volts.

Nothing is working ecept the stupid lights on my gearknob which i think runs off its own battery.

does it have a female spade connection on it?

that goes by the inlet manifol near the airfilter on the top theres a lil brass thing sticking out of it.

have you connected the starter up properly

if there no lights at all theres wires not connected

if the earth on the engine or at the back of the engine it wont work
