It takes very little effit 2 start with by push starting it and runs fine after that but with the starter motor it just wont start ? I have tryed everything i can think of but i can seem 2 fing anything wrong. Any advice would be greatly appeciated

Did you put all the earths back on the head, like the negative from the battery?

Thanks guys but the strangest thing has happened to day! I tryed starting it thismorning and it started fine and has been fine all day. I have no idea what was wrong, i can only assume maby a plug might have been slightly loose
