What is draining your battery-Alternator starter and battery all ok?
Jclovesus
You may have a short circuit somewhere that is leaking current to ground. Or you could have a bulb or accessory that is using current even when the vehicle is turned off. Improperly installed aftermarket stereos & amps are a notorious cause of this.

If I replaced the starter and battery and battery cables on my 350 and the starter barely turns the engine What now?
If you are 100% sure that the battery is good and all the connections are clean and tight, then you need a new starter. But make sure all that is okay first. does it have the right starter on it to start with? Have you been working on the engine and have it out of time??
Starter in your ford explorer not engaging you need to locate it and hit it with a hammer?
If the starter motor is spinning but not engaging it won't help to hit it with a hammer. The "starter drive" portion of the starter is shot. If all you get is a click or no noise at all, you might get lucky by hitting it, assuming the battery and all connections are good. This technique may work once or twice if the starter is at fault. The starter is located under the vehicle. You can follow the path of the positive battery cable from the battery to locate the starter. The positive battery cable will pass thru the starter solenoid on the inner fender then continue down to the starter.
What causes a Ford Windstar to not start just clicks?
If the starter is "clicking" then check the battery to make sure that is has enough juice to turn the starter. If the battery is good. It could be your starter solenoid is bad. Most of these are built into the starter nowadays. You will have to have the starter changed. I am betting on the battery especially if it is older. Another culprit could be your alternator failing to charge your battery.

Does a starter drain a battery?
A starter does drain a battery. The battery holds a charge so that you can use your starter to start the car. After the car is started the alternator recharges your battery and runs your car and all it's accessories. If your car won't start or is having a hard time starting you can drain your battery by repeated unsuccessful attempts to start it.
