Turbo won't start, episode 3.

[Luca <nodoubt@domain.elided>]

OK, last evening I wanted to locate the bad connection, so
I removed the botton cover, just at the steering wheel place.

When I located the 3 wires connector that comes straight from the 
keyswitch, I shaked it, unplugged, plugged back again. Gave a start.

UPS... the startermotor started... but with pretty poor energy.
Since the nite before I started the car just using a straight connection,
from battery positive pole to startermotor input pin, I tried it
again! And again the starter was running poorly. I must tell I left
the batter UNPLUGGED!!!! I gave it a small charge, but I got no
real improvement.  I jump started the using another car, a ford Fiesta
1.1, but I got nothing good. I think it's because this small car's battery
is too poor on ampere side to help the 75.
This morning, after another unplugged night, the car is back to original
trouble I explained coupla days ago.
Sounds simple: battery behaving quite weirdly... but I cannot understand
how it did started up the other day when I made that wire bridge straight
to the startermotors's pin.  Is that possible there's some wire partially
downloading current on ground sucking energy off the system and draining
the battery out????? But I still cannot get how it did started with
a straight connection, and now nothing seems to work.  I am gonna buy
a new battery anyway, and replace the connector placed under the 
steering rack.
