hi i have a 1993 chevrolet lumina i have had it for a year and 2 months. 2 weeks ago i started having problems with my car not starting so i charged my car battery and it work perfectly fine. I also have speakers conected. 2 days later the battery went dead so i went to auto zone again and i charged it fully so i decided to NOT hook up my speakers again because i thought that was the problem but, the same thing is happening only the battery lasted a week and it still works but the car turns off when i come to a stop light. i dont know what it could be please help me

either there is a parasitc draw on the battery or the alternater is not charging the battery. Check connections from the alternater first.
