The Safari might actually, finally be dead.

A jump would only muster out one crank then nothing. It stalled my truck a couple times trying, like the paintless dickhead it is. Now it’s on a battery charger seeing if that does anything.

There’s a gigantic puddle of fluids under it, no idea what any of it is. It also has wasps in the door jambs like what happens every summer.

Did screech or squeal when it turned over?

The first year I freaked out, but this is going on year 8 of doing it. Some long range wasp killer and we’re good to go!

Nope. Just a normal (read: terrible sounding, but normal for it) single crank.

It's a 5-footer. I need to polish it. And buy a polisher...

5 footer is all a truck needs to be.

I’m not saying beat it to the ground and never wash it, but it’s one of those cars where you don’t have to go out of your way to make it nice. I use a combo wax+wash on my Ranger and leave it for months.

Oh no. Poor Safari. What exactly does it do now besides sit? If it has sat long enough then I guess other stuff could have broken.

In about a month it’s going to be my brother’s daily driver (muhaha suffer like I had to) but currently it has sat for about two months. Not the longest it's ever sat though.

Sounds like the starter is dying.
