Sonny,

We need more information for me or anyone else to try and help.

Does it turn over and won't catch? Are you out of gas? Do you have a second key....try it. Does it make any sound at all when you turn the key? Lights and radio will work with a very weak battery, but the starter takes a lot more juice. Take TayorMade advise and try jump starting it.

Hey Crewzin.....how did you do with the storm? No start could be a weak battery or starter selinoid. Look for fuse link.

Art,

Sonny got his PT running with a jump start.

Hurricane Charlie missed our section of Florida completely. Hardly even got any rain out of it. Thanks for asking. [8D]

Glad a jump did it, Sonny, but have battery/charging system checked - I think WalMart will do it for free.
