OK did click on remember me so see if that fixes the problem. Yesterday I left the site sit there signed in and did some other things and you guys seem to be right that after a certain time it will not let you send a post even though you can type it up. I check and it says you are signed in at the top and the bottom says you can post but it doesn't happen.


On our last trip to Austin so I could race at COTA we encountered the worst weather Texas gets, the dreaded ice storm. One of the mornings in early AM I woke to a very slight clicking sound and asked the wife if she heard that and she did. So when I got up I noticed the fridge light was not on green or red and the things that are on didn't seem to be. I quickly realized besides it was pretty cold that the furnace igniter was attempting to light but it didn't have enough power to run the furnace.


I hoped that the engine would start and it fired right up and a few minutes later everything came back on. After checking around I realized that I left the gray and black tank heaters on since it was in the twenty's. I did leave the engine running to heat the place up. Needles to say I won't do that again.


While on the way home we stopped in Houston area at a Walmart and in the morning I checked the battery voltage and it was low. so they had deep cycle batteries and I bought two to replace the single one that was there and installed them. So I do have two new batteries.


Hopefully this won't happen again.
