The bike still wouldn’t start. So, I had to do a bit more troubleshooting. I decided I’d crank the engine by hand with a breaker bar to see if it would even turn, and it did. So, I thumbed the starter and once again, it didn’t start – but it did turn a bit!

So, I drove the VW into the front yard right up to our front porch and hooked up the jumper cables. With a bit more coaxing by hand, I finally got the engine to turn over. A couple of blips to the throttle and it’s back into it’s regular running condition. Unfortunately, I sprayed oil all over the front of the house:

Oops!

Well, just a few more odds and ends to tie up and it’ll be back on the road.

And just to keep up with my picture posting promise, here’s a Storm Trooper doing a wheelie:
