Task 1 is no longer passing..

In task 1 I created the private int barCount; which passed the task fine. But when I create the charge method I am getting the error that task 1 is no longer passing. I would appreciate some help on what i am doing wrong here.

GoKart.java 
class GoKart {
  public static final int MAX_BARS = 8;
  private String color;
  private int barCount;

  private void int charge() {
    barCount = MAX_BARS; 
  } 
  public GoKart(String color) {
    this.color = color;
  }

  public String getColor() {
    return color;
  }
}

Okay so try this:

public void charge() { int barCount = MAX_BARS; }

Put the "void" because it doesn't return anything. Also you need int in front of barCount. This should work now!
