[QUOTE="Termite, post: 576644, member: 15709"] While I don't think this is connected, but a bit of background since I got back... While in France there was an issue with the starter motor one time where the oslenoid would not click, so I put a screwdriver across the terminals and that seemed to solve it. I noticed the connections were a bit rusty, so had them off last weekend to clean them up... the rear of the solenoid shattered when I put a spanner to it and I had to change the starter motor out and change the solenoid. The van has no issues starting or driving while you are keeping the revs high, it's just idling it appears to be totally unable to do apart from a short spell with the choke on full. [/QUOTE]
