Baffling issue
extreme90:
:lol: :lol: its ok, he wont take offence just yet will you neil :lol: :lol:
it is very strange though :? :?
could the bonnet be pushing on something ?
i just cant see it hitting the battery as it sits lower than the front slam panel :?

lee celtic:
the sound proofing under the bonnet could be wet and loose so in the upright position looks fine but when closed it sags down and shorts the battery or touching a dodgy ht lead ,on another car of mine I found out the spark from the coil to the dissy was traveling down the outside of the lead because of damp and dirt and the dissy on the v8's sits high at the front and the ht leads must arch up towards the bonnet :?
with it not starting I'd check the middle one first :wink:
lee celtic:
Oh and I haven't looked at this thread all day because I thought it was about exhausts and noise :lol: :lol: :lol:
hobbit:
Check see if there's an earth strap somewhere that could be getting fouled by the bonnet movement, or to a bolt near the slam plate
Try a jump lead from the battery neg to a good point on the engine and close the bonnet
lee celtic:
Sorry just thought what happends when you have it running and you close the bonet :?: :?:
