Here is my dilemna. My saturn starts fine at times then at other times it won't. It has actually started going to the point of stopping on me and not starting again until the next day.I have no idea what to check for. Or where to even start.I had the spark plugs and wires changed on the car thinking maybe I'm not getting any spark. But check this out I had someone push my battery cables on the battery while trying to start it up and it started just fine. So can you help me get control of my Saturn and get it out of its own nature?

Sounds like u have a couple of problems I would start making sure ur battery cables are clean and tight also have ur battery and alternator tested u can get them tested at the auto parts store for free.A loose battery cable can cause stalling. So when the car doesn't start does the engine turn over and not start?Or does the engine just not turn over?Let me know what u find.
