My car won't start! Help. 850

If it still won't start with a new battery, don't blame the starter or altenator yet. Sounds like your old battery died and will not hold more than 10 amps.
Your kick switch in the charger should have had the engine turning over rapidly. I still suspect bad battery.
Let the new one trickle charge over night. It is not fully charged when you pick it up at Sears.
