Check your battery/Alternator. Disconnect electrical things you don't need like amplifiers. I've killed many alternators on domestic 4 cyl. cars cuz I just couldn't bring myself to disconnect the amp and look for the problem...

humm cause i used 2 bateries and the lights seam to be bright. i am wondering if it could just be a bad ground that is making it not wanting to turn over properly. it doesn't even sound like it wants to start.
thanks

? u mean did my car puff smoke a little? It wouldn't start at all. I just made new connections and sanded some of the grounds up and it fired right up.

i am not too sure cause i bought the car like thAt. the guy told me that there was a puff of smoke and the car died. thats why i am trying to figure out possible problems. to see if it is worth fixing.
thanks
