AnswerI still maintain that you have a bad connecton somehere when you put the increased load for trying to start the car the bad connection turns into an open connection. either that or you have a VERY VERY bad battery. I think I mentioned that the car has 2 (=) cables and you could have a bad connection between the battery cables and the battery.
