Right,
I've done all the usual checks,the plugs are getting a spark, there's fuel coming through, and everything appears to be in the correct order, however the engine will not start, when turning over the engine sounds like it isn't turning over as quickly as it should be then after a few turns it slowly stops turning almost as if the battery is dying(which it isn't).
I've also noticed the battery earth lead is getting quite hot, I've done some searching online and read that the lead is probably knackered and is creating resistance, would this explain why the engine turns over slowly then starts dying?
Anybody got any ideas?
Thanks. :thumb:
