      If your ILMORE Engine will not turn over, possible causes include: * The safety switch tether is not connected, so connect it. * The throttle/shift control is in gear, so shift to neutral. * The main circuit breaker is open, so reset it. * The battery terminal is corroded, so clean the battery terminals. * The battery is weak or worn out, so charge or replace the battery. * The battery wiring connectors are loose or corroded, so clean and tighten them. For defective starter solenoid, neutral safety switch or starter motor, see authorized Ilmor service center.
