I kinda agree with what Diz has to say....had the same problem with my other lawn tractor 3 or 4 years ago...no warning just up and crapped out on me! As far as storing it.... my 982 is ALWAYS parked inside. It isn't a heated shop but it says fairly warm with the black roof and a nice big window to trap the sun's rays every day. It is insulated too but just not "heated". I am thinking this battery has just ran its life course and I am SOL. Will continue to charge it for the rest of the year I think and just buy a new one come spring. I only have about a month of running the 'ol girl anyway and she will be tucked away for winter with her dust sheet over her. :biggrin2.gif: Have to treat her right otherwise she might revolt, then I'd have two irate women on my hands!    Yikes!
I threw it on the charger this morning, figured if the weather holds for the next day or two I could actually get the garden cleaned out and ready to be plowed?
