double check connections...
then if all is OK... check the Solenoid (if ya dont know what that is-> http://www.solenoids.com/ )
then if thats OK... get a battery...
if its still acts up... it would be yer alternator...
alternators are expensive so save that for last...

thanks for the help everyone. it ended up being the battery post were very diry. i cleaned them and no more problem. Just as a side notmy car had a bad vibration coming from the motor. so i replaced the motor mounts and that didnt fix it. then i found that my harmonic balancer was bad, so i put a new one on and the problem went way. just wanted to post this in case any one else has a vibration and cant figure out were it coming from.
