Headed up to our farm (also known as "the Hill") to start the transfer from winter chores to summer... maybe do a little brush mowing to shred up the dead vegetation. I went out to the garage to start the tractor... nothing. Hmm... battery's been a little weak all winter, but usually a little charge will bring it back to life. I hooked up the charger and went in the house to have a little coffee. Puttered around win a couple other things to give the charger time to do its thing and after a couple hours, I decided to give it another shot. Nothing! I guess the battery's really toast this time. It came with the tractor when I bought it used, and the dates were never punched out, so who knows how old it is?
The old battery is a New Holland. I have no idea who makes their batteries, so I think I'll get an Interstate Megatron this time. They've always done well for me in the past, so I know what to expect... After my next paycheck.
Oh well, another weekend wasted.
Anyone else have their favorite battery?
