Really weird but today, I tried to start the car and clicked (like there was not enough battery power), and then tried again nothing, I thought the battery was dead but no.

Now I got in again, and this time pressed the clutch in a started instantly. So it will start 70% of the time without the clutch pressed, but anytime it will not start, just press the clutch a bit and the starter motor kicks in and fires.

Weird, but hay I can live with it.
