I'm on my way to see the car, the owner just took it out and it died.
What should I look at first? He says it's electrically dead.
New battery one month ago is all I know at this point.
I have a digital meter and some scredrivers and a compression tester, an adjustable wrench and some needle nose pliers along with a ratchet and spark plug socket.
Now he says it progressively got worse fast, now the inside light comes on when you open the door and that's all.
GM alternator, I assume I can meter the thing somehow and tell if it's dead?
Something else?
