I have read another thread (Nognar) where similar issues prevailed, also noted that there is also an outside chance the relay could also have issues. Grasping I know. Thanks for the tips ![]()

Spark plugs out, soaking. Flooded.
Pulled fuse to pump, not that I knew the thing was working anyway and spun it over without the plugs in. Plugs replaced, spun over and fired up, on the button! ![]() Thanks for the support guys, pump not needed, this time. ![]()

If you are asking me I don't have a clue! Previously I was turning the car over with the new battery you suggested, it was trying to catch but just not firing up.
As suggested by B@FINK I put the battery on charge, topped up to 12.7v. I thought I may as well check lines, hoses (grasping again) and thought I would pull a spark plug (vice grip garage technique) and see if anything there could be amiss. Plugs pretty good but stank of unburnt fuel. Maybe previous starting attempts caused this, I am not sure. Cleaned and dried the plugs, turned over and fired straight up! Checked the voltage across the battery whilst idling and getting 13.95 volts
