just a few days ago my car started dying while i drive. I didnt drive it for a while because my radiator was leaking so this problem came out of nowhere. I should note that before i parked it because of the radiator leak, my battery died because i left the headlights on. ive killed my battery about 4 times before this because of the same reason. Do you guys think that the culprit is the battery? The car idles fine btw. It only dies when i'm driving
