Finally happened

[Speedrcr]

It took Mother Nature 8 years to kill the battery in my ranger, but she did finally succeed when the temp was -10 this morning...also broke the natural safety switch on the clutch pedal...damn plastic.:banghead:

8 years is pretty good. What brand is it?

[Jesshwarren]

-10 is hard on parts :biggrin:

[Speedrcr]

I honestly couldn't tell you the brand - the sticker is long gone. I agree that -10 is hard on parts. It seems that now the starter or the starter relay is going out. Starts once and then starts just clicking after that....

same thing happened to me this morining on the 98 GT. original motorcraft battery last 11 years.

going to stay home and finish the B2s exhaust and get it ready for work tomorrow.

8 years is a long time for a battery! The battery in my 98 lasted almost that long! I think it survived for 7 years

A good tap with the hammer and she will start right up! I have the new starter on order at work...can't wait for spring to arrive!
