I have a 1991 Ford Fiesta. I just bought it recently to get to and from work. Recently, my car wouldn?t start with the key, but would jump-start easily. I asked around and was told to replace the battery. I did. The car started and worked fine for a week. After that it wouldn?t start without jump starting. I asked around again and was told to replace the alternator. I did. The car is still not starting on its? own. It starts up quick when I jump start it, and after it?s been running, I can turn off the engine and it starts up fine. However, if left for an hour or more, it will not start with the key.
Does anyone have any suggestions as to what I can do? The car didn?t cost much and I?m not interested in taking it into a mechanic, so if it?s something I can fix....
