    I suspect while Bill may have failing chassis batteries he may have something else going on so before throwing in the towel it might be beneficial to at least know if it really is isolated to bad chassis batteries or if it could be a bad solenoid or starter.

    He needs some experienced mechanic who is not afraid of sparks to stick a heavy screw driver across the wire terminals at the starter to rule out a problem there.

    Thanks to everyone for the help.

    Talked with Leon and he determined something wasn’t working properly with the jump start and walked me thru jumping it with the house batteries manually with a jumper cable.

    Thanks to Bernie and everyone for all the help. I will be taking this to the pros to get the batteries changed out and then hopefully lots of summer fun!

    Bill: Good to hear you got it going. Do you know how old your chassis batteries are?
