It started last week it was rainy one night and my car wouldnt start i had to push start it numerous times that night
so i checked my battery cables and one was loose so i tightened it
and it rained again tonight and i thought i was in the clear but ohh no
again it wouldnt start i had to push start it again
like the battery dies if that helps at all
i have an idea what it is but i thought that asking on here would help me out alot
thanks in advance

Can you tell if anything is getting wet?

Does the engine crank but it just won't start?

Check the leading and trailing coils and make sure they are tightened well.

 

If the battery keeps dying you probably need a new alternator. Do you have a voltmeter?

 

or you need a new battery

 

id say the battery is the culprit, sometimes if condensation gets in a battery it will neutralize the acid temperarily (uhh, sorry bout the spelling) ive seen it happen a few times before, but in both cases the battery case was cracked

 

well today i tightened the altenator belt a bit to see if it was slipping when it was wet, on closer expection one of the battery cables had a nice hole in the insulation so i taped that up and now the only way to see if it works is wait for the rain
after i tightened the altenator belt i was getting higher readings on the battery guage
