Nope to the dodgy battery,
I replaced the advance plate on the injector pump, the plate has a 5mm boss which was a retro fit by nissan as fix many years ago for the hot starting problem. There was a service letter sent out for the retro fit so I found out (many years ago).,the guys at midland Nissan tracked down the old part numbers I gave them. Total cost $38.40
I just bought the car last week the previous owner has already replaced glow plugs, new battery, new MAF sensor, new air cleaner, new fuel solinoid, but neglected to tell be about the starting problem. Cheap fix for me, expensive for him... story was he was selling cos his missus didn't have a manual licence.
Anyway all good, I'll post up the new part numbers to make it easy for the next person...
