How do I determine a bad solenoid, or starter?
your battery does sound like its on its last legs. this will affect the ignition and starting. the way you describe the non start with electric as opposed with the kick also points in that direction. can you borrow a spare battery? I had bad running last year and a 2 month old battery had given up one of its plates, i thought it were my charging at first. you could invest in an AGM battery, they are smaller(use colsed cell foam to pack out) but last ages and are sealed!! as a test connect up a car battery with the old battery in place (using jump leads) and see what happens drewps
