[QUOTE="AApple, post: 51575, member: 56"] :rant: Got home yesterday after werk, and had to park outside, and come in and open the garage door. Once I got back to the 'Wing to pull it inside, the dang thing wouldn't crank. It would try, but it sounded like a low battery situation. I put the charger on it for a couple of minutes, and it fired right up, and I was able to get it in the garage. I put my Battery Tender on it, and left it. Today, it fired right up. I put a multimeter on it, and saw 12.4v running at 2500rpm...much lower than I am used to seeing on it.

I'm gonna do the stator checks tomorrow, and if all is well, I'll go ahead and remove the connectors and solder the wires. I sure hope that solves the problem.
