IF it is an automatic it is the ignition isolator switch that only works in park or neutral. If it is a manual it may be the clutch isolation switch or the neutral switch in the box. As it is a required safety device in the car It will be easier to replace the faulty switch
You can get the battery tested at Autozone,Advance, and Oreilys for free. Later, once you find out if the battery is alright,and if you can get the car started, drive back to one of the stores and get the starter tested on the car. Or you can pull the starter and take it along with the battery and have both benchchecked.
You could have timing issues in the Camaro which would make it hard to turn over. But the v-8 Dodge usually has a gear system in their starters that increases the Torque in the starter drive. This feature can account for the ease of starting the Dodge with the Camaro battery.
Also check your starter Relay in the Camaro. You may be losing Voltage before the juice reaches the starter with a fried Relay.
Hey - Glad you're doing a power add on. The short answer is no.
You can just disconnect the battery for 3-4 minutes.
When you hook the battery back up start and run the car normally. Maybe a 20 minute run ONE WAY to a friends house this will give the onboard computer time to adjust.
If the car isn't running well before you add the cold air and you put the cold air on right and hooked up ALL hoses then it will be right. If you didn't purchase the CAI or Cold Air Intake - then you will need to check to be sure it was done right.
Best of luck with it.
Please vote me good if you like my answer. If not post more on it and we can work out any other problems.
The starter is not the issue as you say the car suddenly died. That would not be caused by a bad starter or solenoid.
You car needs the battery to be charged to continue to run. While normally the alternator or charging light would usually come on, I think it has something to do with your alternaor not keeping the charge up on the battery. Without a strong charge, there would not be enough power to turn the engine over, which would explain the starter issue.
The fact that you said the battery had been charged overnight and there wasn't enough power to turn the starter over bothers me. While someone has told you the battery is good, I would take it somewhere else for a 2nd opinion. I have a feeling that the battery is at the root of the problem.
First, clean your battery cables with a wire brush so you know you have a good connection from your battery. If that doesn't do it, it's most likely your starter or selenoid.
