Mate you would be shocked (its horrible) if you saw my work tonight, fkn dogs been chewing on the doors for a while so I had to sort it out today when I saw one in the garage after work.

Not too bad for a paper pusher in a West Perth office!

By day Martin the paper pusher by night under his secret alias Shoey the sheety. I thought it looked pretty good ;-)

I think you got issues.....

It's a newish battery too. Bought it about 8months ago. Got the cat jumped and drove it home (another 30minutes) the battery wasn't charging at all. On Tonkin if I flicked my lights on my electrics would turn off, even the stereo.

 

Got her home. Shut the engine off and immediately tried to start it. Nothing. Completely flat .

Charge up the battery check the voltage with a multi meter it should be about 13ish volts at full charge. Put the battery in the car start it and with it running it should be about 14.2 to 14.4v this will prove if the alternator I's charging the battery. If it has a external voltage regulator you will only need to replace the regulator. If it's built in new alternator? Cheapie multimeter is only about $30. What cca is the battery? Check the water level and make sure the cells are covered with distilled water.

DSC_0120(1).JPGI've got a little tacker here I can charge up for a spare if you want it? Has 10mm or 3/8 terminals so no good for our cars at home. Only a year old free:-) I recall you had a monster under the bonnet. Does it still have the battery in the boot? Maybe a dual battery system?

The car will run with no accessories for ages if the alternator isn't charging the battery. It's the accessories that will kill it. Stereo lights a/c etc.

You've got a charge issue mate and probably battery is fine.

Does batt light come on with key on them go off when started? Is the fan belt tight? Sometimes the belt can slip without making much noise.

Would have to be insanely loose to not turn the water pump and alternator?

It could be the battery, car wouldnt run if the alternator wasnt charging. Batterys can collapse at any time. Is it hooked up to a trickle charger at all? Worse things in the world for batterys, slowly cook them to death....
