Sounds like you could have a loose / dirty battery connection. Remove the battery cables from the battery and clean them till they are bright with a battery brush (available at auto parts store) After cleaning try to start and see if problem solved. Also check the cable going to the relay and to the starter, they could be loose. Also check the ground (negative) cable for good connection.

hi,
to me not seeing the car, I would check the main cables + and negitive power. you definately have a poor connection of some sort. start the car and try jerking on the positive and negitive wires to the battery.also make sure the wires at the starter are tight

there's a bite talked approximately as the belt tensioner pulley. it fairly is spring loaded, to maintain the belt tight. via fact the spring a while, it gets loose and reasons the belt to squeal. replace the tensioner AND the belt. it fairly is a particularly common interest, in case you're reachable, you're able to do it your self. The factors will run approximately $80-a hundred at any automobile factors shop. At a storage, assume to pay approximately $150-2 hundred to have it fastened.
