Hey Mike
I dont think its the battery. Lights are still bright after 10 minutes of running.If you were draining the battery, the lights would not come on. What happens if you try starting the car hours later ?
Im betting the car starts. Im with pjv911, check for bad connections. It might be the starter. I had a bad rebuilt one. About once every two weeks, the car would not start. Hot or cold.
Yes, its embarrassing to be pushing the car down the street and trying to jump in and pop the clutch. I lived with this problem for about a year before replacing the new rebuilt starter with one from ebay.
Be very careful under the car and working on connections at the starter. DISCONNECT THE BATTERY !!!! When I replaced the starter , I connected all the wires to the new starter before bolting it in to make sure it worked( bought from ebay). Connected the disconnect battery, turned the key and the starter spun up. Bolted the starter up, reconnecting the last starter wire, remembered I forgot to disconnect the battery. Nothing happen, but it could of very easily. Still sends chills down my back thinking about that day under the car.
GoodLuck
Brett
