Hi, I was recently doing some welding on my dads Range Rover classic, around the back tail and now it won't start, when the problem began it would turn over and over suggesting fuel or spark but now when I turn the key to start all I here is the starter motor kicking in and something instantly drains the battery from 15 volts to 7 volts and I'm left with the starter motor just clicking.
The battery on it is a deep cycle and seems to be good, as it keeps a charge and it also starts other cars, the only way to get it crank is to get a jump start from another car and then it just turns over and over, no hint of starting.
Its a 3.9 V8 efi, k reg (92), I have checked that it's getting fuel, spark, checked all fuses I can find and it also has had a new distributor cap.
My dad has owned it for nearly 3 years and since ownership it would always start up slowly, like winding it up really, but would always start so thought nothing of it.
Anyway, does anyone know what the problem is? and how do I check to see if a relays are working?.
