Alright, so I did what you said and tried to jump it to start it. It worked perfectly. Now, I noticed I was idling high, so I went and loosened the throttle cable so that it would idle ~1k RPMs. It idled fine, it even revved up better for some reason. Anyways, I turn it off and take the cables off, and the battery still has power. So, I turn the key back into position 2, the lights in the dash come on, and then I turn it to position 3 and all I hear is a weird noise coming from the front of the car like a "zzt zzt zzt zzt + clicking" noise. What would this be? I am thinking starter or ignition, but not too sure?
