I had this same problem 3 years ago. What I did was I replaced both the
positive and negative battery cables with better ones and that cleared the
problem right up. In the process of doing this I managed to break the
starter solenoid when I was removing one of the cables so I had to get a new
one, so I am not exactly sure if it was the solenoid or the cables but from
what I have heard on the list the cables go bad. If it is the solenoid, not
a big deal they are cheaper than the fuel pump relay.
