Always something wrong...

But thats what Wal-Mart is for!
I was trying to start my car after fixing my oil leak (valve cover gasket)
i turned the key and geuss what?
nothing happened...
all of the lights in the car went out, even the low power leds on my dash,
i had been listening to music so i figure the battery just died.
i was parked on a hill, so i took off the brake and roll started it.
20 mins of driving later, i figure the battery is recharged, so i go home and turn it off
i go to leave again, turn the key
nothing happens, same shit...
after an hour of searching with a flashlight (it was 10:00pm) i noticed that the plate that connected the battery ground wire to the body was corroded and only 4 strands of the wire was left!
Realizing that none of the auto parts stores were open, i crossed my fingers and went to wal-mart
its amazing everything they have, i got a 2ga 19" ground wire set for 7 bucks
i love that store,
went home, easy install. just really annoying and a waste of 2 hours of my life...
