Check all battery connections At the battery. At the starter motor. Check the ground strap where it attaches to the block or frame. All should be super clean and tight. No frays or broken insulation. What is the Specific gravity of the 'water in the battery ? Buy a simple tester and check.
Jump it and see if it turns overMeasure the voltage at the battery.
Should be 13.1 volts. Running 14.2 volts.

So I was having loss of power issues...changed the fuel filter first, then replaced the gasket on the intake thing because the old one was basically non existent and was pulling too much air into the engine. I was all excited about putting that back all by myself and went to start it up and the battery seemed low. I charged it. The next day I tried to start it again.
Battery low. Charged it again and tried to start it up without letting it sit too long and the dash lit up but when i pulled my choke out it was completely dead....no lights, no revs, nothing....I am pretty sure the battery is ok. Had it checked not that long ago....short in the wiring? or what? GRRRR I just wanna drive it :(
