Holiday morning shakedown run. Good clean start.
Took a chance running on the same battery that we took around Stow Lake and may have paid for it.
Was on Cabrillo pulling up to a stop sign and she died as soon as she went to idle. Scary but I pulled over and she started clean so I kept going.
But pulling up to the light on Geary, she died again, same way. At that point, I did a quick battery swap.
Didn't want to push my luck, so headed home from 8th Ave. But she ran fine after that, so hoping it was really just the voltage.
The battery I took out was down to 6.23V which is not as low as I'd feared/hoped. Feels like 6.23 should be ok to run off of, but maybe not.
Something to keep an eye on...
