Karl,
Sounds like you might have a flat or faulty battery to me. Have you
tested the battery under load?

Subject: Europa-List: Engine not turning over
Hi,
I found myself stranded with an engine that would not start. There was
only a click from the relay, but no movement up front. I got the
aircraft home on my trailer, it was to be my last flight this season
anyway.
I assume it is a broken sprag clutch. Has anyone got experience in
that area ? My question is: does it require removal of the engine ?
I removed the starter motor and it checks out okay. Hand turning the
prop is also no problem.
Appreciate any advice.
Karl
