Well, I put in some new batteries today and it fired right off. I think there are still some electrical issues cause the lights don't work and the charge gauge on the dash just went to yellow, which is better than it did on the trip up here. The batteries do not fit the original trays so I am...

Sorry for raging on, but now I am confused. Earlier tonight I removed the old batteries from the HMMWV and used a multi-meter to test voltage on them. I know it's not the best, but it is all that I had. They both tested about 7 volts, but what has me confused is that the 2nd battery (I will...
