Starting Issues.

Post by Shhtuart »

In the mornings when i turn her over (cold start), she starts straight away.

When I drive her for a while then turn her off then start it within 30 mins it also starts straight away.

BUT when I drive her and then turn her off and leave it for > 1 hour it takes a while to turn over and start the car.

When it takes a while, the voltage struggles to get over the 1/4 capacity which makes it start.

Any ideas what the problem could be?
