My 90-244 (155K) has a good battery with good and clean connections (and grounds) will not often start on its own. The alternator is getting good power and is charging the battery. The starter is getting good power and I cleaned the connections.

Here is what I cannot understand. It will start right up with a jump. Why, if I have a good battery and good connections will it only start with a jump? And, it starts right up. After that and I try to start it, it sounds like the battery is dead and soon all I hear is the solenoid clicking AND then I have to jump it. Walmart battery people told me it was my starter...I am not sure. Any info, as always will be appreciated.
