I offered Calvin a ride to school today, in return for a favor, so he
waited to walk.
He was having trouble starting the ATV so I stepped in and said 'Let dad
show you how its done.'
One pull on the start cord, two pulls, a three pulls.. SNAP
The pull start cord snapped. It was new! We just replaced it like 3
months ago.
Calvin had to start walking, and thankfully wasn't late.
Conundrum: I can wait for a month to buy a new pull starter cord, but
we'll be in the U.S. by then (Can buy one there) OR, I can buy a new
battery now to get the electric start working, and hope it doesn't die
after 2.5 months of unuse. (batteries cost $200) I think maybe we'll
just live with the inconvenience of not having a working ATV until we
get back.
