Default Problem solved..

Just a quick update on this situation. Battery and starter checked out fine. Had the Indy who put my forwards on take it back, and it turns out that the compensator sprocket wasn't seated properly and therefore wasn't letting the starter spin the engine to start.
Just another thing to keep in mind if anyone else has this issue.
Thanks to all for their input.
Cheers.

Thanks for the update, most people don't bother once their problem is sorted - 'preciated.
