So guess what?! It wasn't the battery's fault after all! Well... yes it did need to be replaced, but the fuel pump was jammed up.
I tore into the fuel lines.
Petcock on tank... Clean. What the? Hm, ok
Fuel filter at tank....clean. What the? Hm, ok
Fuel filter at carb...clean. What the? Hm, ok
Fuel lines.... All clean. What the heck and beans?
So I took off the fuel pump and whoa!!!!
The rubber that was used to seal top lid had swelled terribly and was stopping the pump from sucking. No wonder the old girl would barely run!
Changed the rubber and now along with the clean cables and new battery....Purrrrrrrr.
