could it be bad earth or dicky starter/solenoid?

I can think of few Turds I'd like to burn but apparently it's illegal, and I went off porridge a while ago.

Apparently they did take a lot of pictures but it's 8 years ago and they have deleted all but that one

I would say a big yes if it could save your life.

I might just go down and ask face to face.

We have a place down the road that builds campers but they won't sell ply or offcuts.
