[T3] Speaking of Low voltage and FI


Last night I was disappointed that my Interstate battery looks like its only
going to make it 8 years and not the 9 that the last one did.

Turned the key to start and not enough power to close the starter solenoid,
about 8 volts according to the voltmeter.  So I rolled it back and bump
started it right up!!
Since I dont think the generator can get the system voltage up that much at
cranking speeds I was impressed that the FI was still able to work at such a
low voltage.
