Car dies out of nowhere, where should i start Options

[Goonter]

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

i had a similar issue with mine when i first picked my car up in vancouver. it would idle fine but would hesitate in gear under load so i kept my foot light on the throttle the whole way until i got home. i was worried that i received a 'lemon'. but all it needed was new spark plugs and then the car was able to rev to redline. and boy my first time experiencing that really put a nice big smile on my face

but first, i'd test the spark plug wires with a multimeter or ohmmeter for resistance just to be sure. if they're above 25 kilo-ohms, then there's your problem because there's too much resistance to transmit the spark to the plugs. if the wires are ok, then try replacing the plugs.
