hi all,the car-95 contour v6 5 speed 103,000 miles...the problem-every morning for the past 3 days the battery has been dead and i mean compleatly dead clock loses time and the radio loses its memory,as soon as i hook up jumper cables the light under the hood comes on and after 2 minutes i am able to start the car...ok now i let it run for a few moments turn it off and then it starts right up even after 2 hours but any longer and no juice no start,i should also tell you that the alt is new and the timer in the fuse box has been removed because the interior light will stay on and the dinging and donging wont stop...this problem started a month ago i assume it is a bad timer because i checked the door,hood,glovebox,and trunk switches...i would love to mod this car and take it to bristol dragway and smoke some rice,but i need to keep it running first.i knew this car would be trouble and was prepared for it (i used to own a thunderbird super coupe also full of problems)but i can use some help on this...thanx........................x-rated
