I'm going to go ahead and blame your main ground to the chassis....this is a big 1/0 cable from the battery to a lug that gets connected there to the chassis/fender/frame....wire brush the face of the lug (hold with pliers) all corrosion to make 'er nice and shiny and ready for the three hundred amp demand....at the same time providing Solid 12.5 volts (at least) to the ECU what needs steady amperage and the ignition relay and power to the coils...all this can be maintained with a simple wirebrush....oh and be sure the battery is not yet five years old~
