I did a search on this topic and found lots of info about it.. maybe too much info. I don't know where to start.
From a cold start, my '93 GT starts up fine. After driving for a while, let's say to the gas station, i turn off the engine. When starting up the engine, the startup is weak. The engine weakly turns over but it starts... barely!
Also, i did not use the car for all of last week. When trying to start this morning, the car is dead.
My setup:
My battery has been relocated to the trunk. I've gone through 2 Optima red's and i am currently on a 3-week old brand new Die Hard Gold, which is now drained. Come to think of it, this problem started when the battery moved to the back. It also appears that i am using the proper gauge of wires.
Also of note, my aftermarket stereo is hooked up to stay on when the engine is off ala the old VW Beetle. I make sure that the radio is powered off, naturally.
I am also on my 2nd Powermaster 3g- 1 wire- 140amp alternator. I am almost certain the the alternator is fine. Changing the alternator did not appear to have an affect. Then again, i could be wrong.
I am currently checking the vanity and interior lights.
What else should i be checking or can someone take a stab in the dark and tell me what is going on?
Thanks.
