Re: new battery, not starting.PLZ help! :(

Alright guys its time for an update.
First i replaced the battery, double tested it(its putting out 12.7)
then i cleaned the grounds (just to be sure how many are there and where are they)
then i checked the starter (working perfectly) and replaced the cylinoid. The wires there looked fine, not burnt.
i just replaced the ground wire (directly off the battery) amd the postitive post connection to the battery( a friend said he had the same issue and that fixed it)
i toom it to a mechanic who put a multi meter on(first thing he did) and said the alternator is working properly. Unless he has never seen this before and after spending 2 1/2 hours testing all fuses, starter wires, etc. he couldnt figure it out with out running diagnositcs and spending money i dont have.
My car still wont start with out a boost( this is how i get too and from work every day). I have no idea where to go next. And other people i have talked to are at a loss too. Anybody have any other ideas or suggestions?
