    I found out last year how to start those 800 etecs.  You have to have a regular car battery and good size jumper cables.  Do this and they'll start right up.  Booster packs don't cut it on those 800s. The 800s  make a great Florida sled.

    I put a pull start on my 800.Just start pulling it over and hit the start button,she always fires up then.

    Those potato's remind me of the old country before the Great Potato Famine,that pushed many families to go west to N.America.
