[QUOTE="lesgawlik, post: 91811, member: 4115"] You may wish to check out the thread I started on Compact Track Loaders. I had a very similar experience over the weekend. I can tell you that just because your battery is relatively new, that doesn't mean it is good. I've had new Bobcat brand batteries fail after remarkably short periods. That said, I would look to the starter. As a side note, I started the machine up today with air temp about 40* and it fired right up. The alternator was charging at about 14.9v, which is higher than I like to see, but it is still within specs. I suspect the starter brushes are making intermittent contact. When they do, it's all fine. When not, the solenoid is trying to send juice to the starter motor, but it is dead. [/QUOTE]
