Engine Performance problem
1995 Mercury Cougar V8 Two Wheel Drive Automatic 95678 miles
My 1995 cougar just wont start. Son drove it out of oil. rebult engine and ran good for about 8 months. then it would drain the battery. now it just wont start. it cranks but sounds like the starter wont engage the flywheel. have replaced starter 2 times the alternator, the battery 2 times (keep drain to where it wont hold or take charge).
