Grrrrrr
Technician, Bodgit & Scarper Ltd
Started the scrapper. Bit odd.
Reconnected battery and everything worked again! Tried to start and everything went dark again. Tried a jump lead from battery negative to engine and even battery positive to starter positive but no change. Disconnected battery negative, waited 3 minutes and then reconnected. All lights back on and then this time it cranked so I just kept cranking until it started and then floored it until the birds started coughing in the hedge. After that it idled perfectly.
