[AT] Tractor battery

[Carl Szabelski]

Mike,

Try jumping it, but leave the cables connected for 20-30 minutes before you
attempt a start. Even if you’ve had the charger on all night. Even with a
dead battery it should start and run. It may die when you disconnect the
cables, but if it doesn’t, it should run, but the battery probably won’t
take a charge.
