Evening all I'm after a bit of help! Iv been trying to get my turbo mini started for the first time and it's being a right pig! Ha ha. Iv tried 3 different battreys all with 12v and it's still not cranking as fast as it should. I know the engine was fully working before being taking out of the metro so it's not seazed!! It's got fuel it's got sparks new filters new oil new plugs ect!

Any thoughts please people!

Thanks jake.

Daft suggestion, have you refitted the engine earths? Do you have oil pressure?
