Having starting trouble - put in new battery yesterday.Started today, ran for 10 mins, went to restart again and no power like battery is flat.Checked battery fully charged.Had to start it with a power pack and it started stright away.Any ideas on what's wrong with starting!Happened 3 or 4 times lately.

Dirty solenoid contacts!
Use multimeter to check voltage at solenoid.

Battery fully charged!

I wouldn't say the battery is that good if it started with a power pack, but not off the battery itself.

True. Things are not as OP suggests!

That could be something as simple as a bad connection at a battery terminal. the jump pack by passes the bridges the connection

take the plugs out and clean them - replace them if too far gone
