Message: <blockquote data-quote="Jrock" data-source="post: 71351" data-attributes="member: 10178"><p>Interesting update: I got called out of town for a few days and just got back this morning and found my new (UPS delivered) starter and solenoid waiting on my door step. I just put the starter on the machine and, believe it or not, the engine turned over! I could tell by how easily and fast it turned that the engine wasn't frozen up. (What a relief!) BUT, it didn't start at first. as I turned the engine over, after about 4 seconds of spinning the starter, the stick started shaking. This would indicate to me that perhaps something is stuck, as I first expected. As I tried a couple of additional (shorter attempts) to turn the engine over, I kept giggling the sticks and messing with the foot controls. This seemed to release whatever, if anything, was stuck or jammed up because the engine turned over freely and the shaking of stick controls stopped! But by now, with 18 degree temperature outside, the battery ran down just as it seemed to be about to run. At this point, I'm almost positive that I'll be able to start it up later this afternoon, after I charge the battery back up. I'll re-post tonight. So, I don't know if anyone has any suggestions or advice for me now or not. I just know I'm not going to let any more dummies learn to run a skid steer on my machine again. I have a feeling I just need to change my fluid, filter, etc and go from there. Opinions? Thank you again!</p></blockquote><p></p>
