Leave that charger on overnight and start shopping for new batteries. Once they run down that low, they just never seem to recovery. Glad you got her running. Now, go enjoy that new tuner........

Next thing we'll hear is how the DP is tearing up his tires and dropped his fuel mileage....

Glad you got it running, let us know how it performs!

I was pretty disappointed in the lope-idle as well. Now, I have it and don't really want it (hybrid idle). LOL

Walmart or Costco usually have the best prices and as good a warranty as higher priced batteries. Mine were $75 a piece from Walmart.

Sometimes it worked, sometimes it didn't. Sometimes I got white smoke with it, sometimes not. Here's what I expected:
