[QUOTE="Olly the Ozbus, post: 312284, member: 3849"] 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............ :cry: As usual, any advice gratefully received :D (Serve me right for being smug about fixing other stuff!) Cheers Olly (and his fecking Ozbus!) [/QUOTE]
