Hopped on it today and nothing, gauges jumped and swung but no cranking. I know everyone said I should throw that China made battery into the trash the day I unpacked it from the crate in March of 2002. Well I figured nothing lost if it didn't last that long. Well it has suffered thru the key being left on 3 or 4 times, the mishap when the FEL HOSE QD fell against the Sol Post and shorted it cranking it down to no measurable voltage. Each time I hit it with a full high boost recharge and re-established a good full charge. It's on the trickle charger now but I'm going to try and hit it with a high boost and reestablish a base line but the 10 volts tells me a cell might have finally come loose inside. When I first left the key on it I did pour in a double dose of that battery stabilizer chemical stuff from Harbor Freight. They don't carry it anymore that I have been able to find. Anyhow looks like I'm going to be in the market for a NEW one should it not pull back out of this issue.
