Yep Gene bad cables and frame grounding problems are difficult problems to find. I have a friend with a Dodge pickup Who had changed out the battery, starter, and alternator several times in the course of about 1 year. I checked out his problem at his request.

The little cheap float the balls type are usually good for most troubleshooting. Of course if you have one of those maintenance free batteries with no lids on the cells then you will have to do an electrical load test on the battery. Ben in KY
