Del/ Dezzy

Its deffo either a knacked battery, or just standing there too long.

I've got it running sweetly now.

Had to jump start it, and it took a fair bit of cranking with the odd bang before it could be coaxed into life.

It started off the key after a bit of a run and I'm sure it will be fine after the batt gets fully charged overnight.

Am I asking too much, do you think, leaving it six weeks then expecting it to start right up?

Answering my own question, I think not!
I have an old Sunbeam Tiger in the garage, and it fires right up even if leftfor months, ie all winter.

The S8s battery must be past it.
