Re: Another bargain?
Another bargain or is it. A friend of mine has an Iveco van that he uses to tow his racecar, well a few weeks ago one of the rear lights was out and he found a 5A fuse blown.

Re: Daimler 2.5 V8 Battery/Dynamo issues
Alan. My dynamo when I had one needed about 2000 RPM before it showed a charge on the ammeter, so I would rev your car to 2000 RPM and take a voltage reading.

Re: Hi TORQUE STARTER MOTOR
I do not know about the virtues of the Hi torque starter motor but M&C Wilkinson is a very respected company dealing mainly in rebuilding Jaguars, If they sell it, it will be good.

Re: Is it sacrilege?
I seem to remember that they are illegal to use in the UK unless you are disabled.
I use to have one on my A35 Pickup for driving tests etc and was told it was illegal years ago.
