Hi again:
The Interstate was the first mistake, they always over rate their cold
craning amps, Auto Zone and Wal Mart have the best batteries.
Now, let's try to isolate this problem:
1- Check the battery cables all the way down, carefully by sliding your
fingers over the insulation. If you feel any bumps, the cable is corroding
from inside out. Do that to both cables, negative and positive and also
any
wires near the battery. I would say that might be your problem.
2- Check all of your grounds, especially the ones to the engine and the
body.
I have a feeling that is where your problem might be.
If you have any questions, please feel free to e-mail me directly.
I hope this helps,
RK
