Well, my Ranger gave me a big middle finger because I haven't drove him in a week.

Starter took a crap or is sticking so bad that it isn't cranking. Battery tested 14 volts and 12.5 volts under load with my voltage meter. And I could pop start it in reverse just fine (thank God for stick shifts). But once I turned it off and tried to start it, all it did was click once. And the lights would flicker a little, but not like when I have had a bad battery. It just would click once. Not repeatedly. 

It has been under a year since I replaced it. So I am having my Advance guys get me a new replacement. I think because of my fenders having it so exposed, somehow maybe some water or mud got in it. I guess I better check into building some inner fenders out of plastic barrels and painting them. :(

Wish me luck. Hope it is something that simple.
