Re: 87 4kcsq: strange starting behaviour

["Mark L. Chang" <mchang@ece.nwu.edu>]

Regarding my strange starting behaviour.

After a HOT (ambient and running it hard) jaunt down to south-side
Chi-town yesterday to see a 4kq forsale, left 'er sitting for less than 1
hour (45 mins prolly).

Came back to her and she was DEAD.  Battery-wise.  Jumped her with the
seller (now this is embarassing) and she came back to life easily.

Prolly not the starter... looks like it's time to get a new battery.

Now, anyone in the Chicago 'burbs know where to get a good battery? I
can't find a local Wal-mart or anything _anywhere_... and, unlike Iowa (my
home state), the fix-it and handy-man stores are not abundant :).  (now I
sound really dumb, eh?)

Battery suggestions anyone?

BTW, she starts fine this morning after a 1 hr. drive back from
south-side.  We'll see how she is when I leave the lab this evening... and
yes, my GF is here ready to jump the car if needed :).

So, battery, right?  :)
