Should have been a good thread. Guess there are too many lazy people out there and not a lot of backyad mechanics.

I have a problem that has me stumped

I have a Suzuki WagonR (this model may never have been sold in USA, joint venture with Opel and Suzuki)

Anyway, the car started acting like the battery was too damned tired to start the car. Got a new battery, charged it up. Things were kinda better for about a week, then back to the tired battery. Took the battery back to the shop and exchanged it for one with more amps. No go. It's like the battery is almost dead, yet it is fully charged.

So I thought maybe a bad ground. Used jumper cables from negative to engine. No joy. Jumper cable from positive to starter, no joy.

Any ideas?
