    Yeah, every place I have contacted said they were out of my type of battery and they have been ordering them like crazy. We have had some sub-zero temps up here. The reason the battery is dead is because my nephew left the door open all night and then all day. Oh well...

    No it's not loose at all, I tested that just in case. I don't plan on using the old nut either once I get the blasted thing off.

    I just found out that my uncle has a battery charger and will be getting it tonight. Hopefully that will charge it enough to get it started and then I can take it somewhere and let them do the work.

    Put a piece of a rag or cloth around the nut, then use pliers. :eek: Do this on both sides.
