Damnit, it happened again last night!.
At about 8pm I went out get bulbs at Pep Boys, car started after "cranking over" a couple times.
At about 8:50pm, I was leaving the store and get in my car. I turn the key, and it made about 3 *tries* to start. Then NOTHING. Like it was dead or something.
So, I walk back home.....all ~4miles (I'm in the Valley where it's f'n cold at night also
) , to get my car, pick up my wife, and go jump-start the Accord.
Well...we get there, I pop both hoods, get out the cables. And before I even start hooking the cables up, she starts the car. WTF!!??!!
WTF could it be?
Is it taking 1hr to build back up enough juice to start the car? How is the battery "recharging" when the engine isn't running?
Anybody??????
