Peggy, why don't you buy a battery charger instead and charge your battery. If
it starts after the battery is fully charged, then you either have a charging
system problem (alternator or regulator) or a small short that drains your
battery. It will be much cheaper this way, and the list will help you trouble
shoot. It may be something real simple. At the end, even if you have to go to
the shop, you will know exactly what to ask them to replace, so you will save
money at the end.
