Welcome Dude and happy belated Birthday.

I spent about four years restoring a car BEFORE having it painted in 2003.

Make it functional first and she'll love you forever.

Starting this weekend, follow this maintenance schedule!

So ~that's~ where he knows me from?!?!?

We got disconnected and I left a message for him to ring me back. What grief did you get?

i charged the battery monday night to full. tuesday i stuck it in the car and it started fine. turned to the ACC. played the radio while doing oil change and radiator flush. started the car had it run to drain the block and what not. shut it off for about 4 hours, and restart. the next morning no power what so ever. put it back on the charger after work reads 1.5 volts....whats up with that??

 

[OldSchool1]

1.5?

Did you remember to turn off the arch welder in your trunk?

Dude. It sounds like you either have a bad cell in the battery (a six month old battery is not a new battery) or you have a really nice power drain.

Did you test voltage across the battery while running?
Did you disconnect the battery overnight and test it in the morning?
If you have the receipt for the battery, get it tested. If not, then BUY A NEW BATTERY.
