Hi folks, back again like a bad penny!
Came out of work today and tried to sart the old boy and I got nowt- just a click from the starter solenoid......I'm pretty sure I have enough battery as the lights and all other electrics seem to have plenty of juice so I figured iot was the starter motor that was jammed :?
I tried to rock the bus when in gear (just by myself) and gave the starter a tap with a rubber mallet but to no avail- just wondering if there's a better way to un-jam the starter motor and if not if it is possible to push-start it? It's stuck at work for the night so hopefully it'll be there in the morning............
As usual, any advice gratefully received (Serve me right for being smug about fixing other stuff!)
Cheers
Olly (and his fecking Ozbus!)
