Best Series Tool Ever!!!
My son and I were out back the other night doing some late night wheeling. It had just snowed a few more inches and we wanted to make some tracks in the new snow. We had all the lights on and we lit up the woods pretty good. We were getting stuck and unstuck honing our skills at self recovery. Well at one point, we were so stuck, we shut the engine off....lights on....still on... then dim.....dimmer....went to turn the engine back on and bam...battery died. Thought for a minute....that put a damper on things... I'll head up to the house and fetch a spare battery....WAIT...I got the TOOL!! I picked it up just for an emergency. Thought i would never use it though! Its a hand crank that slips into the hole of a SERIES bumper and through the frame and into a forward facing socket on the outer wall of the crank shaft. It was tough to turn...like the old fashioned cars, but all of a sudden, the pistons loosened up and the crank easily turned and it started up. Coolest tool ever !!! A portable jump starter would have been easier, but hell...the crank worked just as well and we got a good laugh out of it. If you own a series, you gotta get this tool. British Atlanic sells em for about $35.00. Tom
