Used Up
« on: May 21, 2012, 06:00:15 PM »
Battery is near surely fried. Id charged it for a day after it came off the wedge, and I was reading 9v on the gauge when installed. Jumped it off the Deere and it went right to 14v. Let it idle while I mowed the whole lawn, checked steering functionality in the driveway back and forth a Hal dozen times, and it was at 9v/super slow crank immediately after I shut it off. 4 year old yellow top.

Keep power steering topped off and it might be fine.

Needs the poopy exhaust flex tube replaced too - more leak than muffle. Anyone betting that will be looked at before 101 may be a fool.

In cab winch switch might be a good idea.

Trickle charging this battery now. Had juice but needed a jump. Let it idle for an hour and it cranked slow as shit and barely restarted itself.

Probably still needs an IAC. Unless its power related. Poor connections or low voltage do make it run like shit at low RPM.

You keep saying that. 571 or 572 are better line mt cars than most line mt cars.

I guess I could screw some plywood together and put 47 shocks on something with leaf springs and zoomies pretty quick though.

You miss my point. I'm saying building a "line mountain car" is silly, there are better overall tools for that job.
