give the starter a smack
might be a bit stuck

[nick v6]

just try running a jump lead from the battery to the starter
put the ignition on and just touch the live terminal of the starter
justa thought

[johnnycboy]

did not touch that , which goes to the front of engine , left all in place , just took battery off ,

Could simply be battery lead not on properly.

ok i'll let you off on that one

try the battery terminal first
it might be as simpal as that
is sounds like there is not enough power going to the starter which would indicate the battery or the terminal

I would go for Battery  low charge not enough juice to start making soleniod make and break, go for earth strap cheaper.

And please let us know
