Re: Help!!! 5.7 350 OMC wont start or crank

Is it a starting battery and then how old. Does it have enough cranking power for the enigne? Being on a charger wil show proper voltage but if old the cranking amps may not be high enough to turn it over properly. Had similar problem on a battery showing correct charged voltage that was supposed to be 700 cranking amps brought it into auto store and had it tested it was only at 200. Not enough to crank. New battery and problem gone. Might not be issue but worth a try.
