87 turbo regal no start

[84buickregal]

i have an 87 turbo regal. I let it sit for a few day in the cold without starting it. now it wont start, when i turn the key it just clicks. i assumed it was the battery so i tried to jump it but nothing, it just continues to click. Im thinkin the started but it isnt really that old, any suggestions?

I have had batteries go bad, and for some reason the absorb the charge. Try another battery or take that one out and go to local autozone to have it tested. If ya got a multi meter let us know what the voltage is while clicking/cranking.

Thanks

im thinking there is a problem with battery terminals or the cables themselves. if you tried to jump the vehicle there should be adequate voltage and amps. it is not getting to the starter. try cleaning the terminals with baking soda and water and the correct wire brush. also check battery cable ground connection and starter connection. go along the lenght of the cable feeling for internal corrosion. start with simple stuff.
