i would guess you put the positive on the negative and negative on the positive, e.g jumper cables backwards...![]()
Na all was done right, it only started to smoke when it actually started

Most car have a skinny black wire going to the body and a fat black wire going to the engine block.
My guess is the fat wire is not making a real good connection to the block so all the current goes through the skinny wire, so it ends up smoking.
yep a crappy earth will do that check your earths. I had the same problem i just got some 4g amp wires and made a new earth on the body and havent had a problem since.
