Let me clarify what I did yesterday. I purchased a brand new battery for my 92 Safari Van all wheel drive because it did not start. Had to jump start. Today, I tested the alternator, "passed". Still had problem starting the auto. Replaced the fan belt. Again, in order for the car to run, I had to jump start the auto. When I turn the ignition off, the battery is not charge enough to restart. That is my problem.
