I need some ideas. It is a Yamaha atv. Battery shows 12.9 volts and
turns the engine over fine, but won't start. When I hook up a battery
charger it starts right up. Battery voltage when running is 14 volts.


Any ideas?


Hank ~~~knows something has to be wrong


* Try cleaning the battery cable, take them loose and clean where they
contact the battery.


Put a known good battery in paralle with the ?? battery.
