Re: Starting Motor
Geoberni’s post gives you an accurate guide to your battery condition . From your readings my money is on a flat or defunct battery !

Re: Starting Motor
Could be many things - including a flat battery ! If you had the head lights on without the engine running you are draining the battery . It may not be a flat battery but before you start looking for other causes make sure you have it fully charged — reading 12.4 plus !

Re: Starting Motor
Stanmo may get his car started ‘ on the handle ‘ but he still needs to sort the starter motor issue— unless it is the battery , IMO the reading he gave ( below 12 ) might be the cause , and the easiest to eliminate .

Re: Starting Motor
First thing I would try is fully charge the battery and see if the starter engages .

Re: Starting Motor
I would have thought your battery should read 12.4 volts if fully charged . When you say 12 is that an approximation.

Nothing quite like a manual with soiled pages and oily finger prints imo

Re: Regular engine runs during winter storage?
Hi morris.john.
Your procedures sound very similar to mine , even to a battery ‘ conditioner / charger mine is mains operated. I tend to leave the car in neutral however ( its garaged ). The battery is swopped from car to mower and is now fourteen years old , coping OK.
