ok... i just bought a hatch(91 civic) and i put a new starter on it. When i did that i guess i put the intake on different than it was before and the bracket thing that holds it in place was touching the metal conector on the battery which caused a bad smell. So i turned the car off popped the hood and it wouldn't open all the way. Thats when i saw that the bracket thingy was melted onto my hood.. wtf... i was soooo pissed :2up: . Well anyways i got it apart took off the bracket and wrapped it in elctrical tape so it wouldnt touch the connector again. i cranked the car and everything worked.. no fuses were shot so no electrical damage, thank god. Well my question is, is there anything i need to be worried about? new battery? help plz...
