Hello all.
I’ve owned this Tdi 1.4 for many years. Unfortunately I had the usual fuel delivery problems about 4 years ago, failed to fix it and sadly it’s been laid up outside in the garden! I’m now revisiting it with the help of this group, which is amazing
Fitted a new correct battery from Halfords yesterday, fully charged it overnight but unfortunately its turning over very slowly which gets progressively slower as if the battery is flat. I’ve been reading various posts but can’t seem to find where the main battery ground /earth is attached to the body or engine? Obviously I need to get it cranking over at a good rate before I can revisit the fuel delivery problems? Maybe I need a new starter motor, anything else I can do first?
