    From what I've read on the forum its likely to be the starter motor, or the solenoid contacts thereof. Apparently the fuel pressure regulator when it leaks does so directly onto the starter. I believe it's hard to get to unless the manifolds are off. Someone else will probably add some info on the case.

    Correct, just as some general FYI
    FPR is a bit fiddly to get to and does leak directly onto the starter.
    The starter itself is much worse to get out than the FPR.
    Glad to hear you got it sorted ED

    Seven weeks ago I purchased a new battery for my Td5. It was 1000cca and the brand was Supercharge. It comes with a 3 year no questions asked full replacement warranty. Cost me $184.

    I was asked " Is it ignorance or apathy?" I replied "I don't know and I don't care."
