Elau - I'll move this thread to tech help, alright?

As far as your battery, it definitely sounds like it is gone. It should read around 12.7V resting and more at idle (13V+). Did you hook a voltmeter up to it yet? With the dry wells and battery age, I wouldn't be surprised if it is toast at this point...
