guys

a few probs with the car
1. intermittent starting problem from cold,i don't use it every day its only a weekend car,so when i jump in to start it and turn the key nothing happens apart from the fuel pump fizz,the starter doesn't click at all,plug a battery charger into it at it will start straight away,it has a new battery(not sure its the right size what cranking amps should it be),and a new alternator.i charged it for an hour or so last night before i went out and it started twice off the key OK left it for about 3 hours and it would start had to get friends to give me a push.went to it this morning and it started straight away,so it wouldn't start after 3 hours but it did start after 12 hours?it has been retro fitted with a Clifford alarm any ideas

What does mark YHM mean?

Anyway, Sounds like its a sticky relay to me. It won't be the clifford, as the fuel pump wouldn't run if the immobiliser was active as the fuel pump is one of the three isolations for CAT 1 alarms.
