OK, Seriously, I've been through 5-6 batteries since January. HELP!

OK. This HAS to be an alternator problem. My car is a vampire.

If I start the car and unhook the battery, it will still run, So the alternator is working right?. Now is it possible for the alternator to keep the car running, but not charge up the battery?

A couple times the brake lights were stuck on because the little knob had broken and that drained every bit of life out of 2 batteries, but I fixed it and recharged them with a charger. Yet it seems that the batteries only work like they're not rechargeable. (whoops, power's gone gotta throw it away)

Recently though, the car (which I of course got to push-start) would die after a while of idling, and if it didn't die, and I drove it, I couldn't go over 3Krpm. It's stutter, stumble and then die if I didn't keep pumping the accelerator. Hell, even if I'm pumping it, the car'd still die.

SO? what the flux is up wit dat?

get one of those quick battery disconnects....i use it on one of my cars that has a drain...(think its the power cap and or alarm).... saves me from buying $200 batteries over and over

i dunno if its help since im a mitsu tech, but maybe its the ecu? with mitsu the alt. voltage goes to the ecu first since it regulate it then it sends it to the battery to get recharge.

Maybe your battery cables connections are loose? Also are you running a fmic with smaller battery?
