EK starting issue,power loss etc...
ok so basically to me but not quit sure i think my battery is just crap, wont keep a charge, ill jump start the car drive it around for an hr and then i would think that the alternator would have put a charge into the battery, the very momment that i turned the car off it wont start up right after.Its so weak that doesnt have enuff juice to even try to have the starter turn over.
also noticed that when i "punch it" lights/head lights and radio restarts up, also sometimes on idle(ON) ill play with the light switch and radio restarts
CHECKED:
all grounds
couple fuses
TESTED: while car was ON
alternator by taking battery terminals off and having car run strait off alternator (idle)
and was high reving it for couple of mins.....didnt die or struggle
ANY SUGGESTIONS AT ALL???

why not take it to autozone and check out the battery and the alternator? my buddy had similar problem with his civic, it was his alternator tho. everytime we came to a stoplight, engine died and i had to jump start it. it took frigging 5-7 jumpstarts (at each damn light), to get the old clunker home and then replace the alternator.
