Starting problems_

Hi again. I asked this question before didnt get a reply wanna try again.
Prob #1-when its cold, doesnt start like it used to. goes on then shuts off, do it a few times in neutral stays on but i have to give it gas. then eventually goes on fine. but today when i was turning it the 4th time, it made some weird noise like scraping , grinding,but turned fine, maybe from turning it to many times

Prob #2- i have a short or two somewhere in the car, removed the alarm, fixed the fan sensor, changed the alt, theres still something draining the batt. (alt caused this prob, overheated or something cause everything to go nuts & burned some parts) Shorts are pains in the ***.

Prob #3-noticed this week, theres liquid coming out of the muffler, not from the tailpipe by where it connects to the oval piece. doesnt smell like gas, looks like black water.
Btw all the prob happened after the alt mishapp
Could any of these probs be related to each other, going to the mech thurs, its driving me nuts. The mech said it could be teh idle something part. Hes gonna look for the drain also. Im thinking the part thats causing the short is also causing the starting prob and the leaking prob. AHHHH, GIve me opinions pleasseee. I've been told to sell the max boy but i dont want to , trying to save him, but dont wanna spend another 500 on him.
Email me bklyngirl311@collegeclub.com or reply to this post please, i know a few of u guys know or have an idea. matt93se or jeff or someone help

Thanxxxxxxxx. Have a good and healty new year!
