Hello I'm new to this forum. I recently purchased a 1998 C1500 5.0 L V8 pickup and experienced something strange when I tried to start it. It started to crank and then the lights went dim and the starter dragged for a few seconds and there was a loud pop from under the hood with a little bit of smoke coming out. I let the truck sit for a few seconds and then everything went back to normal. I couldn't get it to do it again and nothing appeared to be damaged.
