The battery that was in it was about 8 years old, 1 year beyond warranty. I have a booster I tried first with no luck. A shorted battery cell can cause problems like this, or has in the past. Replaced it thinking that would take care of it. New Diehard is running 12.5+ volts. No clicking. Still does not turn over.

No time to deal with it this week and I need the truck Saturday to pick up a set of Volk TE37 SL wheels with a set of RE-11's on them. Off to the shop it goes.

The only thing better than a dead bird, is a cooked dead bird.

all non-edible birds should be removed from this planet.

my G drives like she means it when she is out and about.
