battery
Went to a car show sat. in winter garden, fl. nice show. When it was time to go my car wouldnt start. I tried to jump start it but nothing. The car had to sit overnight in winter garden. I had to go to wal mart for a battery because thats what was open at 4 am. Anyway replaced the battery and it fired up. I couldnt remember how old my battery was. It turns out I did get 6 years of service from the interstate battery. But why didnt it jump start?

the lead lug in mine decided to let go when i was removing the positive battery cable.. i had to remove the lug from the bolt by using channel locks on the lug and a ratchet with a 5/16" socket on the bolt. i replaced the battery cable bolts, used my dremel to clean both sides of each cable ans sprayed some "battery protectant" spray on each cable and each post on the battery. battery was an ac delco brand battery.
