  • "Hmm, wonder why its not starting? Let try it, *20 seconds. Hmm, look's like a dead battery, lemme try it again. Ok, lets turn on the charger and see if it cranks up after a 5 second charge. Son of a bitch! Nope, guess its not the battery, engine must be seized, shit! Mother fucker!"

  • you must stop with trying to crank the engine when you already knows that the battery is dead.

    when you keep trying you can kill the starter.the same thing happens to us on one of our tractors and we had to replace the battery and starter because whe keep trying to get it started!

  • Yeah, that's really trashing the starter solenoid contacts doing that...

  • gee doppey smoke another one

  • You are an idiot. Leave the thing alone, you are gonna wear the starter solenoid contacts out and its not gonna start on ya when it needed.

  • Why keep trying to start it when you know its not going to go ?? gesh !!!!

  • Dead battery!

  • That dead battery is going to take a good 4 hours before it gets enough charge to turn over the engine. It might start if you wait for the battery to recover. After at least 12 hours it should be totally recovered.

  • i think if you just plug in your Generator then it will work when ever you need it

  • If you were working maintenance on one of my buildings I wouldnt trust you to empty my trash cans without fouling something up. You ever think the battery needed water? charging a dry battery is pointless.You can't tell he difference, btwn a chattering starter solenoid, and a spinning starter? You had access to the battery and most of the starter, and yet, I never saw you check for loose or dirty connections. It takes 30 secs cranking, when volts is clearly low - you still aren't sure???

  • obviously doesnt have any idea how much current a starter motor draws. battery is critical
