well Brian let me tell you! what a PITA
1.the battery that came with it wouldn't hold a charge
2.no
3.old but straight
4.no
5.generator
6.no
I went to the closest battery store with a 6 volt, AdvanceAuto and found a new battery, it was only 2 years old and sold at a discount. Here's your sign!
It was bad but didn't realize that until I was on the side of the road again! It showed full charge until under a load, should have checked that before I left! I pulled it out and returned it and went to Battery Plus and "baby, I'm back". It was battery all the way.
the 3 elements right? air/fuel/FIRE!!
Thank you guys for all your insight and hope not to bother you anytime soon.
