Caggy... This problem all of a sudden appeared..?

Question

If I keep trying it the batterery will go flat. shall I try and knock the starter motor with a hammer?

I really need to sort out this prob, Ive got interviews to go to next week. and short of cash.

Answer 1

If the engine is trying to fire then the starter motor is ok.  If there is a problem with the ignition system, it may be possible to over-ride it temporarily by removing the sparking plugs and reducing the gaps to 0.5mm.  While the sparking plugs are out, squirt a small amount of WD40 into the plug holes which will help to start the engine.  If none of these work, then sorry - it really is a garage job.  Good luck with the interviews.

Edit - is it possible you have taken off the sparking plug caps and then put them back on the wrong plugs?

Answer 2

Eh chaps this is monitors and not motors!
