When you say not engaging, is it grinding the teeth on the fly wheel or not even touching it?

Grinding, has not done it in a few days thought so haven't got off my arse to look at it yet.
Gonna take it off and have a look at teeth soon. I'm suspecting my flywheel is rooted, the voltage sounds to be good.
Starts really well when it doesn't grind

I'd say it's the teeth on the flywheel then. Had the same in my sigma for a while. We just turned the flywheel around and stuck it back on. Worked fine after that. If I hadn't run it off funds I would of replaced it though.
