Does it put out enough cranking amps?
I honestly have no clue and that is what has always been on my mind, it was the cheapest schucks battery they had because we were working our asses off to get my car running again and had limited cash.

First thing I'm gonna do is get the battery tested, if it's the problem ill just buy a new nice one since I have money now.

EDIT: Just went outside and tried to start it, first two times nothing happened on key turn, third time started just fine. Pretty sure its the battery
