I'd want to know the age/info on the battery, if the alternator is working, and the answers to some of the unanswered questions in the thread...as the distributor, etc, can also be bad, yada yada yada....

If you have crappy cables, but another battery from something of appropriate power, you can swap batteries, and see if that fixes it.
If not, its other stuff.
