Through a contrivance of events, I had to leave this car for 2 weeks without it being run at all. It wouldn't start when I got back to it, but I got a jump and it drove 45 miles home on the freeway, and then seemed to have no issues for about a week as I drove it regularly. Stupidly on my part, I did not run it for another 4 or 5 days, and now it won't start again, although it does seem to be getting the faintest amount of juice whereas when it previously did not run it was deader than a doornail. Is it possible to guess with some degree of confidence what I would need to do to get this little car, which heretofore has been something of a cockroach, to run reliably again? I'd appreciate any advice; I'm pretty clueless when it comes to cars. -Steve (This post was edited by muteant on Oct 4, 2012, 11:37 AM) Hammer Time Ultimate Carjunky / Moderator Oct 4, 2012, 11:47 AM Post #2 of 4 (3022 views) Re: 2000 Mazda Protege - Problems Starting Sign In What was the result when you had the battery tested? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional. muteant New User Oct 4, 2012, 11:49 AM Post #3 of 4 (3017 views) Re: 2000 Mazda Protege - Problems Starting Sign In In Reply To What was the result when you had the battery tested? Thank you for responding. I didn't have the battery tested. Do I need to bite the bullet and take this thing to a shop or should I try replacing the battery first?
