First Aid

Tried to give some first aid today to my Brothers 2a. Despite trying to jump start his Land Rover no luck. Very slow cranking suspect a) battery first, b) starter motor. Oh well, next weekend's job then

Hopefully just a battery. I was surprised old red's battery, fine one day, completely dead the next. Battery wouldn't charge, just dead. New battery and been fine ever since. James

Hi
Must be the colder weather, it soon sees them off. Odd that my 4x2 had the same symptoms but in the end it was the starter. Dropped in a military series 3 starter (12v) and it cranks faster than it ever did.
