Hi all
Right i have been having problem starting my series 2.5 diesel the battery is fully charge it will start the engine once then on the second extempt the starter runs very slowly until it stops but the battery is still reading 12 volts
Once i connect it via jump leads to a running car the landy turns over perfectly !!!
I brought a new starter motor and fitted it tonight first turn with the key the start spun nice and fast and started the engine easily great !!
Turned the landy off tried to start it again all i get is a load of clicking from the starter motor the engine doesnt even turn over !!!
Connect it via jump lead to a running car again and it starts perfectly
It has to be the battery would you agree ?? what i dont understand is if the battery is crap why does it still reed 12 volts ??
Please help guys all advise is gratfully recieved.
Cheers chris
