It means that you had a vertually dead battery consequences of a dead or dying starter that was shorting out the system so that the battery was draining enough voltage so as not do both turn the engine over and supply voltage to fire the plugs. When it did run and stop it meant that the battery had self charged and gotten enough residual voltage to momentarly start and fire the ignition. THEN the voltage would drop to a point where it wouldn't fire the ignition system any more and there you sat with a no start situation. It takes X amount of voltage to fire and electronic ignition system. Some more some less. You may have in the process bandaided a poor connection causing the system not to charge properly.

Clean it, if it's Dirty. Oil it, if it Squeaks.
But: Don't fix it, if it Works!
