I replaced the battery when I got the car, just last fall.
It has about 65,000 miles on it and it just recently had it's 60,000 mile service.
It usually starts in about 3 to 5 cranks, usually takes less then a second to start up cold, warm takes usually 1 crank or 2 on a bad day.
The first time it stalled I was running very low on fuel. I ended up getting honked at because I was sitting for a while trying to figure out what the heck was going on, so I put on the caution lights and starting to go through the steps and it fired back up. The second time was right after I fueled up, but I was sitting on an incline so maybe the fuel pump was having a hard time pulling the fuel the engine or something.
Sometime this week, weather and time permitting, I'm going to take a look at the battery charge levels and alternator connectors but last I checked, not too long ago it all was fine. I will also check the fuel pump because after my grandmother got it into a big front end wreck, the entire front end was repaired and the engine was rebuilt and I know they re-used some of the parts that survived the accident so it might just be a part that is failed due to the accident. I have also been meaning to replace the spark plugs, so maybe next weekend I can look into doing that if the other things prove inconclusive.
