When this happen,did you try to jump start it with another car?And if so did it crank and run?
No it would not run at all but it would crank i had to stay in the gas to keep it running
Sound,s like you may need a set of plug,s in it fouled plug,s will cause it to flood with gas and not crank,and even when running will run ruff.The cranking issue when guage,s go crazy,is a weak battery,or cable,s going to starter and the body ground,
One more thing to add,the starter will do this all so,meaning the eratic guage jumping,starter may be going bad.
Thank you very much i will let you know what it was lol
Ok so its not the battery itself it is the posts and cables on the battery. Thanks again. Have a Happy turkey day
