Default !Help! any Idea what's wrong!

I have put in a system in my 1987 Chrysler LeBaron It has Clairon 3.5's
in my dash Pioneer 5.25's 6x9' and a 12" 300W sub in the trunk. My 6x9's
are amped by a Kicker 50si and the sub is amped by a Kenwood 300W amp.
With a JVC KD-6S90 head unit w/ one preout the amps are Y-connected to
this pre out and the entire system is wired with 8 guage from battery to
sub amp.

Ok now for my problem. When I power up my system the sub amp turns on
for a few seconds then powers down. While my 6x9 amp keeps running.
When I disconnect the 6x9 amp from the power splitter the sub amp works
fine. My co-workers think I might need to up-grade the main power wire to
4 guage.

Would this work? Or should I go see a professional in the Windsor Ontario
Canada area for this?

Any answers or suggestions (Except for get a new car. Cuz I can't afford
one yet) would be greatly aprecieated.

Thanks
