Late this afternoon I drove about a mile and parked up, went to the chippy and returned after 20 mins or so.
The car would not start, turned over but would not fire.
Walked home with fish and chips and returned to the car about 45 mins later, started on first try with no hesitation. Drove car back to Northwich an hour later and no problems.
Does anyone know what might have been the cause?
Fuel tank 3/4 full, battery 2 years old, all systems working ok until the run home from the chippy.
