Shut it down and tarped it. Worked flawlessly... I went to start it up this weekend (in March) and no luck. The starter clicks and it appears to try and turn over the engine but the engine won't turn over. At first it just appeared that the battery was low so I tried to boost it and no difference. It seems as if either something on the hydraulics is engaged or the engine is hydrolocked. The oil looks clean and the coolant was good to -45 Left a trickle charger on the battery to make sure it was topped up and the hour meter has jumped from 222 to 877 in a day. I have checked all the fuses and replaced a blown fuse for the dome light and one for the washer pump but can't see how these would have made a difference. Any tips/tricks? Thanks in advance....</p></blockquote><p></p>
