No start...

No start...
'96 150, 302 M5OD.
Rig can sit for 3-4 weeks, and start right up. Run few miles to store, come out, nothing but loud click. Clutch start it to get home where it sits for 2 weeks. Starts right up, only to repeat the no start situation.
New battery, after someone helped themselves to my old one.
(The cut the cables about 8" from the batt hot side, so I got one of those brass cable splices...) I just ordered new hot cable from R/A, btw.
New batt terminals and starter bench tests good at Advanced.
Still no start, just a loud click at the fender switch....

Starter has been cold for every test/repair/attempt to start to this point. Battery charger, 2a trickle. 10a reg, and boost. Then, jump start with Explorer with new jumper cables... when weather straightens out, will put on new hot cable, and look into new starter. (Bad heart, and copd, I can only hit it when I can git it...) Thanks to all for the info.
