So got in my van and went to work.


silly question. how did you know it was dead?? like what did it doo?


What do most thing do when there dead apart from smell and DONT WORK LOL


Fitted a second hand starter from Cam, started nicely. Let the rear tyres down and backed it into the garage ready to pull out my transferbox and find the oil leak. And add some underseal.

The starter was spinning but not engaging, so I will strip it apart another day and get it back to life.
