Tim 97 #1 Posted April 13, 2014 my 314 was stored over the winter. I started it a couple of times and in late January or so it would not turn over jumped it with my jump starter and let her run for a while. no big deal, need a new battery put a new battery in it and when I turn the key to the start position, I blow the 25 amp fuse could I have a bad battery? I jumped across the solenoid and the starter turned it over I keep it stored in a shed not outside so the elements didn't get to it thoughts Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
