starting problem
I have a question hopefully someone will answer my question I keep getting codes B2282 (battery Fault #1) and B2284( battery fault #2 )now the battery is new and I am pointing it at the starter I dont know why but It runs fine at 13.5 volts and as soon as you shut it off and try to restart it it is dead. I disconnect the battery and about 4 hours later she starts again another code is B0851 (battery out of range) now I know there is a relay for the starting system could this be one of my problems. I will wait for some answers Thanks vettefriends

Sound like you have a couple of issues but answer this question first:
Can you grab the battery terminal cable and move the cables CW or CCW using just your hand??

WELL,, THE BATTERY CANT TELL YOU THAT IT.s BAD OR GOOD UNLESS YOU FULLY CHARGE IT AND HAVE IT TESTED. woooops,, all caps
Charge it and then go have it fully tested for Cold Cranking Amps and reserve capacity. report the status of the battery test.

For improvement in starting wait 15 minutes for excess petrol to evaporate, then try again without using manual choke. Depress the accelerator pedal slowly to the floor and keep it there. Don't pump the pedal, you will flood the carburettor again.
