Default Re: Truck based woody

So on Saturday I took a friend back to the ferry in the woodie and we were a bit late so we did 55 on a couple of straightaways. Been running GREAT! Well I stopped in town before returning home and ol' Woodie wouldn't start back up. One solenoid click then nuttin'..... I'm hanging over the fenders cleaning connections with nothing but a pair of needle nose vicegrips.I have a toolbag I 'always' take with me', but I won't forget it again. I added a couple strips of sandpaper to it's contents too. Six volt or 12 volt, the stuff has to be clean..... Just a reminder to bring a few tools! Nice that good weather is returning!
