Dsmguy1993 is an unknown quantity at this point
I fixed the issue guys I wired my positive cable to the start directly using a 4 gauge wire to connect the starter and positive cable as well as the small 12v starter/harness power eyelet. From the starter to alternator its a small 4awg wire length and from alternator to fuse box its another 4awg wire. Now my car cranks up perfectly fine and runs good I had it at the mall yesterday I also installed an optima yellowtop battery and yes they are worth it I notice improvement. Yeah my car starts and runs fine now also if you have this issue drive it around for at least 20-30 minutes so the alternator can recharges it. previously when I had the wiring like starter to alternator then alternator to fuse box and my positive cable connects there when I would try cranking it with 13v in my battery itll drop to 12.7 and not crank unless jumper cables were involved. Its more a current issue than anything I say use 2 gauge wire for the starter but the store only har 4 so I used that instead and it works just fine how its wired makes a difference imo.
