Sure, the crank was slightly weaker than before, but once I started it, I left the engine running for about 5 mins, and there was quite a decent amount of white smoke coming out from the pipes. There was about 1/4 tank of fuel that time. After that, turned the engine off, and started it again, and no issues. And to make sure, I took the car out on a spirited drive along the Federal Highway last Sunday morning... :4: it's been ages since I managed to hit 160 on that road. Hahaha. Anyways, past history was that my car failed to start last year after less than a week without usage, so for it to last for 8 days without any significant issues, is really a huge relief to me. :top: Of course, like what tamade7 said, it's a way of finding out whether anything's wrong with your car. Traced it to a weak battery & faulty alternator back then. Hope your car will be fine. 3 weeks is quite a long time for it to be left unused.</blockquote>
