I have smacked the starter motor..

[ilovegrannys]

Started (well i tried) to start the granny. I have been yonder in other lands. I have new battery. So thats out of the window. She has a immobiliser. i dont know how old. I tried to jump her off my daily driver which started first time (jap) There is not a point on this tread really, just un f**king un happy. I am with the AA, but i can fix an OSF!! Maybe not today eh.

 

I am really not sure how old the 'im' is. I will get the hammer on the starter again tomorrow. I need her for Powderham next month, i know its a while away, but i will be to until the 6th of July as i will be away in other lands. So time is short....Shall i bite the built and ring the AA??? How poor can that be...........

you saying your starter is sticking so you need to give it a smack to loosen it off? check you're getting enough current to it, mine had that problem and it was a loose cable

Yeah, come on Chris give us a chance and tell us what's actually happening?

 

Meanwhile deffo call the AA, what else do you pay a membership fee for?

Sorry about the tread, i was slightly shit faced when i typed that. I am going to take the battery back to Halfords. It has a 3 yr war. I just need some good excuses.

Flatspot on the starter motor? My plastic has one & if the flat spot is in the wrong place it won't start!
