After my heep being down for a while, I'm starting to think the reason it doesn't start is one of three things:
1. Battery
2. Alternator
3. Short (somewhere)
It seems that when I get it jumped, it will run just fine. Today I got a friend to jump me, let my battery charge for about 2 min, then I cranked it. Started right up. I revved the engine and everything seemed to be in order. Then after idling for about 20-30 seconds, it died out. After cleaning some sensors and connectors for a few hours, I tried to crank it again and my battery was completely dead. I'm wondering why this is. Do I have a short somewhere or is my battery just not holding a charge?
TIA
