88 xj starting problem

Hey all, I bought a rig from a friend (88 xj) that has been sitting for a couple months. He ran it at least once a week but when I went to pick it up, it wouldn't start. Tried jumping it, no luck, so I towed it home. I put in a new ignition cylinder, ignition switch (computer), starter relay, and took the starter to oreily to have it tested and it passed. The battery was obviously dead so I swapped in my marine battery (could be a noob mistake). Does it have enough cranking amps to start it and if so, what am I missing. I'm hoping that it isn't an electrical wiring problem :eek: Thanks
