If it wasn't "good" before you added the can, and was working that night, but not the following morning, then I'm leaning towards a leak. I'm assuming you filled it with one of those hoses that have...

She could, but there's still the issue with ground clearance. I don't know how close the nose will be to the ground with the back wheels lifted up anywhere from 4 to 8 inches. Then the center of...

I just checked the Uhaul site and you can rent a pickup or a 10' box truck for $19.95/hour (plus $1.39/mile). Too bad you don't have anything left in the other house, otherwise the 10' truck would...

Does the battery maintainer have a cigarette lighter plug as well as battery clamps? If so, why can't back-feed from the cigarette lighter or "power socket"? This way you won't have to worry about...
