Default forgive my little rant.

After first reporting a starting problem to my local h-dealer back in June (they couldn't find what was wrong) I changed my battery it was 4 years old- still hard to start-check cables -tight- starter blows -changed that out-once in a while still turning over slow- batt. and engine light come on- further investigation stator now cooked, change stator and voltage regulator- so I show up to get my vehicle back and it just clicks- they (HD) forgot to plug the battery in overnight. It took a boost to get me home and then all I could do is take it home and plug it in.
It is beginning to feel like I have been cursed!

to remove the curse.... you will need:
an egg from a black chicken, basil and alcohol, and various other voodoo items. take them to the wrench and cleanse his dirty soul.

I thought the bell took care of all these things? I don't know who to trust any more.

Hopefully the dealers 'technician' forgetting to charge the battery overnight was the only thing he forgot to do/check!

any color chicken as long as the egg is in sunlight for 13 days!

I'm re-adjusting the clutch right now, he left no play on the lever, so I'm just opening it up to do his job right and will adjust the lever afterwards.

I never bought a new battery I had to charge. They must have sold you one that's been on the shelf a long time.

But, I hope all your issues are resolved. That one thing after another **** gets old.
