Hi everyone. My 94 has an intermittent no start condition. Always starts with a jump.

When it won’t start, the voltage meter is inevitably low, below 13 volts. The battery was new in May and I just replaced the alternator. The security light does not blink when the car won’t start. The volt meter does not dip when you try to crank the engine over.

I’d be grateful from any suggestions.
