Hey guys, i went to start my troll and it just clicked on me, sounded like it was throwing out the solenoid but not turning over. Then after near killing pedestrians as my frustration grew it kicked over. Then after leaving work it turned over first go but sounded like the battery was struggling. Voltage dropped a heap on the voltmeter. Brand new batteries and alternator and perfect charge so it was very weird. Then when i got home nothing, just clicking and occasionally it would make the weirdest almost growl sound but not kick over. What have i done?! And a new starter is ridonculous price so if anybody has any good ideas lemme know before i spend bulk. As an ex mechanic i'll know what your talking about, im just on 12hr shifts and very low on time to suss this out at length.
