Update....
Starter motor was in a very very poor way, usually brought on by poor treatment...starting gear,running with low fuel??? Etc... Anyway fully refurbed  including bell house bush, bargain price of £30 to the trade :wink:
Let's hope now that when I refit it the bloody thing turns over otherwise I will be pissed off :cry: :cry:
