Hi Guys

Fuel pump primes, battery fine, but just get a clicking noise and it won't start. Starter motor? Any help or advice appreciated!

Thanks

Well, I made it to the track day, a few hours late, but still plenty of time for a few laps. However, as soon as it got hot, after a a couple of laps, it started to misfire. Let it cool down and took it out again, same happened, couple of good laps, then misfire. Could the coil packs be breaking down?
Also to say the guys at Javelin track days couldn't be more helpful, even borrowed a few tools off them to sort out a loose vacuum hose.

Yes, sounds exactly the same Scooby. Hit the dual carriage way on the way home and it happened again. I have gone away for the week now, but will investigate further at the weekend. I am also losing coolant, but not obviously. I.e no puddles under the car or on any thing I can see. Not sure if connected, but needs a bit of TLC I think! Will keep you posted
