I just noticed the car has a new alternator.

Here's my guess;

OP had similar issues in the past. Replaces battery. Still has issue. Replaces alternator.

Replacement battery was ruined because the alternator was shot. Now car doesn't start.

Of course that's a complete WAG.:cwl::cwl:
lol

but possible

Sorry 600 cca and super start is the brand
That's Oreily's brand, or something they sell.

So, here's where I've let you down........I don't know shit about batteries. Not one damn little thing, about which ones are quality, and which ones aren't.

But you know what the sequence of events were. Did I guess correctly earlier? Did you first try replacing your batter, then found it was the alternator, and in the mean time you used the vehicle with the alternator not charging the battery correctly, before you replaced the alternator?

If so, you've got a bad battery.

And no matter what actually happened, start with replacing the battery first. With one left to charge over-night so you know it's 100%.

Repacked alternator because car kept dying, thinking that was the issue...but nope turned out to be the VCT solenoids l. Replaced them all good. Just lately now the cars having trouble starting.
