If anyone could please help me with this huge problem I'm experiencing, I would be very greatful. Yesterday, my 87 camaro died on the side of the road. I thought it just ran out of gas, because I was very low. So I ran to the gas station, and put about a gallon in the tank. So I go to turn the key, and I get nothing but a click and the sound of the fuel pump. Lately I have been having problems with the battery connection, but it's never failed to crank. Now it won't even crank, just a click. My engine is a carbureted V8. Any suggestions?? Right now my car is sitting on the side of some road ten minutes from my house, and I really don't know what to do.
