Alright I had to replace the cable running between the megafuse and the starter but have gotten rid of the battery light, got my volts back up to 14 and the alternator seems to be charging the battery again. Now i'm hearing an interesting ticking noise that almost sounds like an exhaust leak from the back side of the motor (right around where i was working for the cable) I don't know if this is something i just caused while replacing the cable or if it just started. It sounds lower than the valve cover and on the back side for sure. I can't feel any excessive vibrations on the motor and am out of ideas. I just replaced my clutch and diff, but its not the chatter i'm hearing because i can push the clutch in and it doesn't all go away. This ticking is MUCH louder when i'm on the gas with a load on the engine but you can almost always hear it when it's running. It has the symptoms of an exhaust leak but i don't know that it is...
BTW my cable was bad because the EGR melted right through it
looks like i routed it incorrectly last time. When it shorted out it killed the car and was not pretty.... It didn't blow the fuse though and i'm just wondering if that could've messed other things up?
