@BayouBluesMan You’ve obviously never started a car that sat for years. We had 2 problems, first the exhaust system turned out to be full of acorns & other? crap. We even had a shop vac attached to the tail pipe sucking as we started it. Second it turned out the choke could not operate because it was missing a part which is now fixed. We had two batteries connected in parallel and did not in any way damage the starter. Three years later it is running perfectly!
