A few weeks ago my battery died out left the head lights on (brain fart) drained the battery. Got a jump start bettery was fine now every morning I have a slow crank but it will start. But in the middle of day I can drive and stop shut off engine then wait 15-30 min jump in crank it and it's fine. Is my battery not holding the charge? :wtf:

yeah you may need a new battery. thats what it seems like. since apparently your alternator is charging it throughout the day and once it sits overnight its lost its charge.

Pro ViZIon (http://zilvia.net/f/members/pro-vizion.html) is most likely right. You can take your battery into Autozone to have it tested for free.

Check the fluid level, add distiller water if it is lower: otherwise buy a new battery
