no problems while warming up. When it gets very hot (in traffic, on hot
days especially) it starts to run unevenly at idle. It gets worse if extra

166 Flat battery by
david_dance
According to the handbook, trickle charging the battery or starting via jump
leads should only be carried out by "authorised AR services".
