How to Troubleshoot a 1969 Chevy Truck That Wont Start

A 1969 Chevy truck might be having starting problems because of a dead battery or an insufficient level of fuel in the gas tank. The battery is one of the most important components of starting a vehicle. Without the battery, the motor will not get the electrical charge that it needs in order to start. By jump starting the battery, you can get the battery to charge up. Adding fuel to the gas tank could also be a quick fix to your starting issue.

Instructions

    1

    Check the fuel level in your Chevy truck. Add fuel if you think that you might have a broken gas gauge. Get a mechanic to replace your gas gauge.

    2

    Open the hood and attach the positive lead from your jumper cable to your battery. Connect the negative lead from your jumper cable to the negative terminal on your battery.

    3

    Get a friend to attach the positive and negative leads from the jumper cable to their cars battery.

    4

    Start your friends car and then start your Chevy truck. Leave the truck running for a about 5 minutes to allow the battery to charge.

    5

    Turn the truck off and then restart the truck. If the truck does not restart, you will need a new battery.
