Author Message   Niceguyeddy Posted on Wednesday, March 11, 2009 - 08:44 pm:        Looking for some opinions. My stock battery ('08) will more than ocassionally crank a bit, dip all together and then come back to fire it up. Doesn't seem right. Thanks for any help in advance.

That is usually it. Let us know if it works please. Pos. to batt., Pos to starter, Neg. to batt., Neg. to grd.   Niceguyeddy Posted on Thursday, March 12, 2009 - 11:57 pm:        Thanks, will do, hadn't checked at the starter. Marcus   Buell_bert Posted on Friday, March 13, 2009 - 02:33 am:        Yea most just clean the batt. terminals but you have to clean the other ends also. A bad connection is just like a clogged filter. This is just the easy fix. It could be something else.   Niceguyeddy Posted on Sunday, March 15, 2009 - 05:36 pm:        It appears to have worked for now. Fired it up 2x today, strong, no dip. This wasn't an every time issue so, I'll find out if this was a fix over time. Thanks for your help, it's greatly appreciated. Marcus
