Beanz Posted December 10, 2011 Report Share Posted December 10, 2011 I was looking for a new battery as my old battery is craping out.this is the third time this month that my car dies before I start or up in the morning in cold days...the car is a 2001 pontiac grand price gtp Quote That's why they don't deliver. Yer ass better go sit along the side of the road and wait. You can't expect them to travel up some dirt road in a hick / back woods town. Thats how horror movies start I explain things very simply and use analogies in terms of Pickles, and grape drink, pool noodles and jackhammers...if you can't put 2 and 2 together there man, There simply is not much more I can do.

brownm3 Posted December 10, 2011 Report Share Posted December 10, 2011 Sounds like an alternator problem vs a battery problem.

brownm3 Posted December 10, 2011 Report Share Posted December 10, 2011 Alt is responsible for keeping that batterires charged. What system are you running? Maybe your over working your current electrical system.

cvxsmitty58 Posted December 10, 2011 Report Share Posted December 10, 2011 Check the water in the batteries. Cold weather and low water in batteries isnt the best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miguels Posted December 10, 2011 Report Share Posted December 10, 2011 (edited) check to see if you have clean grounds, what was working months ago might not work now since rust can build up, also check if the alternator is grounded correctly. it might get just a bit to show you are charging but not enough to charge correctly Edited December 10, 2011 by Miguels Quote my logshttp://www.stevemead...-my-new-set-up/my blow through loghttp://www.stevemead...future-updates/ 96 ss http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/164094-96-impala-ss-build/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
