Well last night I thought it would be fun(and it was!) to go hunting for huge snow piles like I sometimes do, now that we have snow. I simply plow the Cavalier through as big of a pile as I can find that I know is *safe* to go through. :rock
The Target in New Berlin had a real doozy that was taller than the Cav...:D. Anyway...
This morning the car would not start. Just a click....ok starter dead? Seemed peculiar. I dumped a bucket of water on top of it....yea maybe not the best idea but it can't hurt a dead starter any more can it? Well it turned over slowly, died...then started up fine. Viola. There wasnt much snow near the starter...and hopefully when I get back to her she starts up fine
I think my days of hunting for snow piles to plow through, might be done...at least until its above freezing ;). Lesson learned, assuming I don't get too tempted again. If anyone else does this sort of activity, beware :wstupid .
