My 2A has always been incredibly hard to start, It had a new battery about 3 years ago but i think it was too low a rating as even with that it was tricky to start.
It has no hope now in the cold and ive been jumping it for the last week or so to move it round the garden.
What is the proper rating of battery you should use on a 2.5 n/a diesel engine? The current one is a 69Ah one. I reckon something like 100Ah would be more like it!
PS - Lee - it aint going to snow this year! I've just got to fix the broken drivers seat and find a battery that will start it (i think he may fail it out of spite if he has to jump it for its MOT!) and its being booked for its MOT!
