Check battery for condition including load test. Check connections at starter relay and fusible links at relay

YOU MEAN WHILE KEY IS IN THE START POSITION, IT'S-A-FIRING, WHEN YOU TURN LOOSE IT DIES?

AND WE'RE GETTING HOW MANY VOLTS WHILE IT IS TURNING OVER (CRANKING)?

GIMME A LIST OF WHAT HAS BEEN REPLACED (AND WHY?) (AND WAS IT RUNNING PRIOR TO THE REPLACING?)
