Why your 76 vw start been sitting outside a while whilst you wait for part to pass the MOT have charged battery but on re-fitting it bus still start?

Possible causes:

1. Battery not fully charged: Even though you have charged the battery, it may not be fully charged. Try charging the battery for a longer period of time and then try starting the bus again.

2. Bad battery connection: Make sure the battery is securely connected to the terminals. Clean the terminals and posts if necessary.

3. Bad starter: The starter may be faulty and not able to turn over the engine. Try tapping the starter with a hammer or wrench to see if it will start. If it does, you may need to replace the starter.

4. Bad ignition switch: The ignition switch may be faulty and not able to send power to the starter. Try turning the key to the "start" position and see if you hear a clicking sound. If you hear a clicking sound, you may need to replace the ignition switch.

5. Bad fuel: The fuel may have gone bad while the bus was sitting outside. Try draining the old fuel and adding new fuel.

6. Other electrical issues: There could be other electrical issues that are preventing the bus from starting. Try checking the fuses and relays, and make sure that the wiring is in good condition.

If you are unable to start the bus, you may need to take it to a mechanic to have it diagnosed and repaired.
