    Be sure to check and clean the Negative cable too—both at the battery end AND at the body & engine ends.

    There was a 3 or 4 day thread here a few months ago, same problem as yours I think, that was due to one or both of the ground connections.

    As Mr. Foster would say, "Them electrons have to get back for revolting".
