Bonus Sunday Morning video on Life Behind the Forestry Forum channel for your amusement. :)

I apologize to my wheeler. I left it outside for a week during which we had a couple duck drowners. I found it would not turn over with the start button, although the guages and lights all appeared normal. I need that puppy on the trailer! She She's going to da U.P.!

You may have already solved it jeff.. But for others info.. This often ends up being lack of dielectric grease in starter solenoids, ESPECIALLY aftermarket replacements.  Hold the start button and bang on components a bit.  Itll show itself.  Extra frequent in high humidity.

Mike, ALL of us in Mr Peek's 10gr science class had to make a plain paper bag book cover for our science books. It was actually (in retrospect) a neat project in & of itself. Without us knowing, it got us primed for the hardness of teaching that was his style. I'd often heard (after high school) that he taught at the college level, & it was true. Because I just barely passed his class with almost the lowest D that was out there, & nobody passed with an A. After that, everyone else was cake! In my weird way, I miss HS. I know, 3 letters of my name says EVERYTHING about me, BUT I OWN IT! 🤪.  ODD TODD
