Electrical problem
1993 GMC Truck V8 Two Wheel Drive Automatic

GMC has been park for months barely driven at all. Had battery charge for couple of hours. Place battery in the truck and it fired right up. Let it run for about thirty to forty-five mins and turn off. Tried to restart, battery was dead, so I jump it off and really just hook the cables didn't have to start my other vechicle. Could battery have a dead cell or is there or charging problems?

Hi, need some info..."no-load", "while cranking", and "while running" system voltage numbers MAY help us diagnose and are very easy for you to get. Best to have batt/alt/etc. checked AMP-wise, though...
