Hi I have got a problem with starting the engine thought it was the starter as it just clicks so I replaced with a new one, 'having a new battery recently' cleaned all cable contacts between battery and starter motor and occasionally it still just clicks any ideas

Checked/cleaned the earths as well? also, are the terminals making good contact with the wire, dirt/corrosion over the years might have increased resistance in the crimps themselves...

Ahh, "having a new battery recently" also check that you've not missed off connecting any of the terminals back to the posts, there's a couple of earths and at least same again on positive side IIRC... You wouldn't get a click if it was the switch I don't think
