Well, turns out it was the old battery. 



Is there something I can put or spray on the terminals to keep them from corroding? 
Next time you check your oil drip the oil on the terminals that you wold normally wipe off on your rag to clean the stick. Or, you could use the fancy-schmancy dielectric grease that RR suggests if cost is no object. ;)

Well I was just trying to think what the rich pricks from Oakville Bronte would recommend.... ;D    (BTW..it's like $5 for the stuff).  :)


PM sent to you, Railton.
Yeah but dielectric grease doesn't creep like oil. You'd have to disassemble the terminals to get the grease on properly and we (Bronte-pricks) don't have time for all that. ;)

Do you realize that in about 40 years, we'll have thousands of old ladies running around with tattoos?

Well the idea is you get Geeves to do it when he's putting the battery in...sheesh! 
How fast is my Supra?  I sh*t on Cessnas from a roll....
