'99 V8 Won't Start

Syncmate arrived. Started first time.
Checked the altenator output and am getting 14.4v maybe the battery drain being caused by something else. More checking required over the weekend but thank goodness (and you guys) she now starts.

Good show ,glad you have it started.

Just an update to say that I nailed what was causing the flat battery. Stuck my metre on and after she had settled down for a few mins she was pulling 0.6A. I disconnected every fuse and relay with no change in the current draw. I disconnected the altenator and no change there. Lastly I pulled the blue aeriel lead of the RF receiver and low and behold the current dropped to 0.03A.
Clearly somebody in the village got a new wireless toy over Christmas as I have never had any RF related problems on either car until 2 weeks ago. Both now have the aeriel disconnected until I can get a couple of new receivers.
