    The starter won't properly crank the engine even with a known good battery.
    What are your vehicle's symptoms?

    I would recommend you have a reputable shop diagnose the starting/charging system to ensure that the alternator can keep the battery fully charged and that the starter isn't drawing excessive ampereage, etc.
    Both ends of both battery cables need to be clean and tight. Inspect the accesory drive belt for stretch and wear.
