Title: New battery, car won\'t start :(
Post by: probedb on January 08, 2007, 07:12:26 PM
My shiny new Optima Red Top turned up today.

Car has been sitting pointing down the drive for the past 3 months and it won\'t start, starter motor is going fine it just never \'catches\' or whatever the term is. Wondering if it\'s flooded or something as rotaries have a tendency to do?

I only want to move from the drive to the garage.....4 metres!

Take the spark plugs out and see if they are wet. If they are then its flooded, if they aren\'t then could be any number of things.

Check that first.
