Re: battery problem

Well I have had to take a few days off due to rain so I have to go back to making sure the batterys are charged again. And I know the cooler is low again and I am real sure I heard the framus valve chattering. Its gona be a long summer.

James, I'm beginning to think that your "low liquids sensing sender" may be malfunctioning. This is NOT GOOD. You should ohm it out to make sure it's at 100% before you go out again...and don't forget Deb

Well Davem3, if you're not gonna take the Admiral with you when running fluid level diagnostics on the water, then I STRONGLY suggest you have an anchor and up-to-date flares.

Re: battery problem

We spent the day out and dang cooler seams to stay low and was forced to just ride the boat around for several hours to charge up the battery, But the grill is working fine.

Re: battery problem

This is why I love iboats, great maint. ideas. I best take a Monday off and start with checking the fluids early Saturday morning. You can't be too careful with maint. Thanks for the idea.
