Hi
I have a 94 supreme with the 3.4 dual overhead cam engine.
The timing belt went and I replaced it. It ran for a while then I put it in the Garage. After about a month I went to start it and the battery was dead.
I boosted it, it was ok for a while. this happened 2 or 3 times. then one day I could no longer boost it. So I thought the battery is dead. I put a new battery in and it doesn't start it cranks very slowly 2 or 3 times and then the battery seems dead again. Now I am stumped I checked cranking voltage it is way to low. So thinking I put the battery in my other car to see just incase no problem started the car right away.
Anyone anywhere have any Ideas.
Thanks

Sounds like your boosting toasted your starter.
When using a booster you can actually melt the solder thats inside the starter motor, I've done it myself- live and learn.
Hope that helps.

The starting issue I had was, at first intermittent...was the crank sensor.
