[DML] Can Won't Start - Battery Dies

["daviddelorean" <daviddelorean@xxxxxxxxx>]

Been having this problem with my car for about a month now. After the car sits overnight, you get in the next day and try to start it. Turn the key, the engine cranks and begins to start, then it sputters and dies out. Try to start it again the same thing happens until it just won't turn over at all. After only 4-5 tries in a 1 minute timeframe, the battery is dead and turning the key just makes it go CLICK CLICK CLICK.

If I jump the battery onto my other car the Delorean starts right up.

I find it hard to believe this is a battery issue though alone since I have an Interstate battery that is 1 year old and I'm in a warm climate.

Anyone think it could be electrical related...maybe something is grounding out and draining the battery overnight? Or could it be engine related?
