Answers: IF your headlights burn bright and stir dim when you try to start it, you have a impossible connection to/from the battery-operated - corrosion, damaged cable etc. check the other termination of the ground cable to the chassis also.

IF after recharging it go dead after a few days or after a long trip as defiant around town a few miles, it is probably in the charging system of the sports car - alternator, wiring, or control system.

IF right after charging it doesn't start similar to a new battery-operated - slow, sluggish - then it is probably the battery-operated.

IF it goes insensible while parked overnight you have a slow leach - like a insubstantial that isn't turning off - trunk, glove box, etc.

Best bet is to permit the people at your local parts store check it out beside their test system.
