hya peeps,, fresh from the oven newbie here lol. i have been reading this forum for a couple of days now trying to get to the root of my problem, but there seems to be a few related issues that could be the answer :o my galaxy has been a good old girl till last week when i came out to the car and turned the key. key turned, starter turned then, hmmm. she turned ok for a couple ov revolutions then seemed to loose battery power as she stopped rotating. got a click on the key a couple of times so i rolled of the kerb and chucked it into gear, started within 10 yds (great) got home and guess what, tried key while engine hot and nothing. got the homestart man out who waved a badly welded screwdriver round the starter motor to short the starter :( owch. all to no avail, he tried the key one more time for good luck and wow!! cranked over veeery slowly and started. lasted a couple of days turning over so slowly you would think the battery was dead, and now its gone the same way again. battery is a1. is it poss that i have a relay problem or an idle starter motor, HELP plz :(
