Hey guys, after leaving the battery disconnected for a couple of days and then reconnecting, I'm having trouble starting the car. I turn the ignition on and wait for the airbag light to turn off, then when I start it up it'll start and the revs will drop off and it'll cut out on me. I only seem to be able to start it by keeping my foot gently on the throttle and slowly letting it down from 3k revs, sometimes this doesn't even work.
It will also happen even if the car has been run for a while, such as after I fill up with petrol it takes me 5 mins to start the car which is quite embarrassing. It's been doing it for just over two weeks now.

Ps, sorry bout the text wall. Thanks in advance! Smile
