Engine momentarily died

[4low]

I stopped at a servo this morning to get some bait and left my brother in the car and he was listening to the radio. I come back a few minutes later then went to turn her over and nothing. Completely dead. Tried a few times and wouldnt crank at all. Lifted the hood and moved the terminals on the battery and started no dramas at all. It reset my time to 1.00 and my kilometres to zero but not the total overall kilometres

Anything to be worried about?

Probably just oxidised terminals / battery post. Clean them up with some fine sand paper til they are shiny.

I'll give that a go, thanks!

This happened to mine a couple of months ago, just did as suggested above and it's been fine since, also smeared vasoline over the outside of the clamps and exposed posts AFTER I'd finished to give some protection from the elements.
