It's a hot summer here so morning starts aren't really that cold.

The car and battery are new and had no issues prior to fitting the caps. This morning it started perfectly though so fingers crossed the ECU has 'learned' something.

I did first use the caps on the Jeep and also got a slight stumble (the battery IS weak on that one), and the caps couldn't start my 875cc Fiat, barely got a turn of the flywheel.

Beginning to suspect it's the caps themselves that are faulty, but then they seem to bench charge fine.
