Hi ... my Puma won't fire can anyone help please. She started turning over then she stopped trying to fire and just got a constant whirring noise, has the starter motor failed or is it something else? Thanks in advance!

Hi, from what you have described, it could well be the starter motor, best
get a second opinion though.

I'd suspect the starter motor solenoid has packed up. The starter will still be turning but it's not conneted to the flywheel any more. A tap with a hammer might free it but more likeley you need a new starter - sorry.
