Oh great, something 'else' I need to worry about!!
In other news, I've got ours 'under wraps' for the winter but at some point I need to crack it back open. A week or so ago I was rotating food-stocks and pulled out a 5 gal. bucket (those are SO useful!! Always keep one or two empties, 'just in case') that turned out to be an effective mousetrap.
That explains why I'm one wire short on the battery/relay connection, but that wasn't a mouse, that was a rat. Nearly caught the (not so!) little bugger a couple of days ago, but he disappeared in the fender well.
Also talked to my father a couple of days ago, and found out that he recently bought a '76 Dodge. I need to call him back and get the details, but apparently his has decided to 'eat' batteries. Going home from the family reunion, he made it from Lake Arbuckle (Oklahoma) to Purcell, where he had to buy another battery from Wally-World just to get home in Noble (about 20mi). He's thinking shot alternator. :-/
