I just bought a 95' camaro about 2 months ago. Here a few weeks ago mt battery kept going dead, even when I put a new one on there. Tested alternator, said it was fine. Finely car died, changed alternator anyway & changed belt. Car is alot better but from time to time it still hesitates to start. Can anyone help me on this?

I would clean all the connections between the battery and the starter and the battery to chassis connection.

If by hesitation you mean that it turns over, but doesn't start sometimes, then look at your key and the VATS system. If key doesn't make good contact ( chip in key contacting points inside ignition switch ), you may get bad reading on resistance of key chip and the VATs system will not let the car start.

okay, I am a dummy when it comes to this,when you say VATs system, is this the alarm?
