- erm...



yes....



I think the oriinal equipment battery has turned its last. Its been sluggish to start to start and when we left it while on holiday it didn't play, only just turned a couple of days later in the airport carpark after a work trip.

the cells are correct to level, but the plates, on inspection, are split and warped. time to buy a fresh one.

although the lack of current draw seems to behelping the mileage!!!
