Hi all,
i have a defender 90 with a dicovery 200 tdi engine. For the past few days i have gone to fill up at the petrol station and when i have gone to start the landy it wouldnt start. The first time i turned the ignition the dash lights dimmed and nothing. Turned the key on and off to start a few times and it finally started. Then yesterday i went to fill up, i went to start it and nothing, same thing with the lights on dash dimming and then the starter stuck on so i had to tap it to get it off but it still did nothing. The only way it would start was with a push. There have been no problems with starting in fact its great it has only done it in the petrol stations. So really im not sure what to check.
I have tried looking to see if there has been any other threads on the matter but i have not come accoss anything.
I would be very grateful for any advice
thanks
mick
