Not Ranked
Chuck,
Sounds like your battery cables are not connected tightly enough or they're too small. Did you mount the battery in the trunk? I had a similar problem when I set up my car. I used the frame for the ground return. To reduce the resistance at the connections, I disconnected the battery ground cable, scraped off the paint from the steel frame (where the cable touches it), bolted the connection back on, then soldered the 0 gauge cable to the frame with a propane torch and rosin core solder. I did the same thing with the ground cable from the engine to the frame. You do have a ground cable from the engine to the frame, right? No problem since in 15 years.
I hope this helps,
Paul
