1999 1.2 (petrol) running very rough - Galad
I thought the battery in FiL's Corsa (1999) had died when no electrics worked. Used jump leads to start it from my Mazda 323TD and it fired up first time. However, engine management light in the Corsa lit up and the engine is now revving up and down of its own accord and kangaroos trying to drive it. The car will start which suggests the battery maybe okay after all. There's only 15k on the clock from new.

Any suggestions? Thanks
