Ummmm, why did you screw the solar panels to the roof in the first place? The only systems we add screws as well as the Selleys Armourflex to hold it on the roof are those where the aluminium skin is not attached anywhere and just flaps around in the breeze. We add a screw through the aluminium angle to hold the roof sheet to a bearer so it doesn't peal the whole roof sheet off if the panels decides to become a wing for some reason.
As far as the start batteries draining, charge them up and leave them disconnected and then connect them up a week later and see if they will start the bus. This will tell you if the problem is with the batteries or something draining them.
