I went to Richmond to recover a 816 last year.All the fluids were drained,I spent a lot of time and money getting her road ready,I got about 1 mile off base and had to call a lowboy that was 3 hours away to come get it.It turned into a long day and a expensive recovery.

Make shure you check all the gear lube in all boxes on the rear. The last one is a pain to get to and more of a pain to fill.

 

[jcappeljr]

Yes they did..

Now I have a starting gremlin to figure out .think the starter may have a bad or sticking solinoid. get a click with charged new batteries and a new black box.

Sounds like a bad Solenoid or broke contact.
