Asked May 21, 2010, 01:28 AM — 2 Answers
I have a 2002 Mazda Miata ... Recently had a tune up. It was parked for a couple of weeks, but I would start it up and all ok. I went to start it and it started then died. I had to repeat this 4 times and still it wouldn't start. I gave up as not to run the battery down. helpppppppppp Becky

The battery might be dead, try charging it then see if it'll start.

Remove and fully charge or replace the battery. Most auto parts stores will test and charge batteries for free.
