1995 Grand Am Wont start

PStu 21 April 2005 08:01:26
 It's my dad's car ... i just borrowed it to run down on a quick errand- it
died. Jumped it and it ran fine for 5 minutes- but died before i can get
home. He "insists" its a brand-new battery. haha - any help is appreciated
- just hope i can find an answer without a tow and a mechanic's fee-

I have had that happen to me many times in different cars. It always turned
out to be the battery or alternator.

Definatley check altermator output. Keep in mind that the electric
fuel pump runs constantly so a fresh battery won’t last long.

Well... actually the f/p only runs past prime if there is oil pressure.
