going by local prices for reconditioning one the cheapest was £40,so for £25 delivered it made sense. if things werent so tight lately it would have had a new one, but after starting up my own little buisness and buying a some new equipment funds are kinda limited

Am wondering if you've got an earthing problem here?

Try connecting a jump-lead from the battery negative terminal to, say, a good point on the engine block, such as a manifold stud/nut.

Then try to start it!

tried all that already mate, had on of my mates pop in from his garage earlier to throw some fresh ideas at it ,but came to the same conclusion its the second hand starter, just one of them things i suppose! cannot complain though nearly five years of ownership and aside from servicing and doing the rocker gaskets its the only time its let me down. not bad for the £1200 i gave for it in 2007! where abouts in the valleys are you from?
