As some of you might remember I was having real bad issues with my car, ofwhich most have been fixed....We replaced the MAF, EGR valve, Ignition coil pack (I believe that is what it was called, they said I was running on 4 cylinders out of 6 until we fixed it). Anyway, the car was running good, only had a noise from down under but after taking it to the exhaust guys we learned it is the Catalytic Converter and can be replaced for 160.00. Well the day we planned on getting it fixed the car decided not to start. The car did this before but I was told once I changed the MAF it would fix its self, the car would only crank but if I left it alone for a few hours it would start right up, but now it is not even doing that for me. This is really upsetting me because it is one thing after another for months now and I am getting tired of walking! :shakehead I tell ya, my car now has four wheels and gets great gas milage...it is my daughters stroller! When I first go out and start the car it will start but die before I can give it gas, on the second attempt all it does is crank and crank. After a few days of this, me going out and praying today will be a great day, I go out and the same thing happened, it started but died and then only cranked...but this time after I tried to start the car a few times it seemed to be dying, maybe I was killing the battery by trying so much, I dont know. When I leave it alone and go back out after 4 hours or so it will do the same thing again and eventually bog down like the battery is dying. When I put the key in the lights come on so I dont think it is the battery, but I am wondering. The crank will get real slow like it is going to stop all together, but after some time it is charged back up again and cranks fine.
Is it time to sell?

Also, we already replaced the ignition switch.
