Hi, got T4 caravelle camper, petrol engine out of 6 months sleep no probs, had RAC confirm that both engine battery & leisure were charging well via atuo relay. Had 4 days touring Suffolk no problems, drove home approx 2 hour drive, parked to unload, went to take to storage yard and wouldn't start? Left if a couple of hours and it started? Any ideas what is the problem...

Wouldn't start as in "not turning over / cranking" or "turns over / cranks" but does not run?

Two different issues.
