Thanks for the replies . I have purchased a Ctek MXS 5.0 Test and charge so that the new battery will be looked after in between drives. I only use the Excel on a Sunday afternoon for an hour or so .

I have worked through the fault finding sheet and everything seems to be working fine . Particularly the green valve and associated tubes. Peter you have me interested in mapped ignition and I would like to look at the possibility of fitting a basic system . I would prefer to leave original set up i...

With my original otter switch temp on the gauge always was 82 and never seemed to get anywhere near 100 on the vdo gauge. I have replaced the otter switch twice, first with the later screw...
