SOUNDS LIKE THE STARTER MOTOR IS f**kED does it click when you try turn it over and is the fuel injected model???

17V is too high...battery could be defective, assuming your multi-meter is accurate.

Check and clean battery terminals + connections to starter and all earths (esp battery earth to block.

Can any of you lot read? he states that the engine is turning over but not starting.

Make sure it is getting fuel, and spark.

if it has both of these let me know.

Can you comprehend that 17V is too high ??

Check your battery terminal connects, and the wires going to starter motor and alternator. My r30 was doing this last month, my battery terminals were dodgy even tho they "seemed" fine to me. But in the end my battery was stuffed too

I wasn't disputing that fact, obviously you CAN'T read.

Dodgy connections will NOT give a higher reading than what the battery is putting out.

Yeah Battery Just been Replaced now its Just Clicking when i try to turn it over! i know Generally this is the Starter Motor But I just replaced it grrrrr.

might Just build up my Tuff na Motor and Through the engine away!

[george.bryant]

hey... my mates escort was doing the same thing it would turn and turn but wouldnt start...but he didnt have the wireing harness and was just using a single cable to try and cick it over..i can remember wat he did but when he got the harness it worked..so check to make sure that all ur cables are conected properly...and as stated b4 yeh the starter motor might have dodgy conections or something...

If I've translated this correctly, the engine will now run, but only if you hold the key in the START position; as soon as you release it back to RUN, the engine dies. Is that a correct summation?

If so, then it is possibly a fusible link has blown, or a simple thing like a fuse.

[R30kc70UGE]

No thats not correct sorry what i ment is It is Just keep Pushing itself to Run But as soon As I stop tyring to turn it over this one was a bit obvius it stops
