  1. If you have doubts and don't want to short out the entire car I'd suggest you disconnect the cable from the battery to the solenoid and replace it with a piece of wire that has a 30 amp fuse in it. If anything is really wired incorrectly it will just blow the fuse.
  2. Hi Laurence,

    Yes I was in the RAN full-time from 1972 until 1998 and then on the Reserves until 2020. Most of my full-time career was in the Fleet Air Arm, flying in Grumman Trackers when we had a carrier and then a couple of years on helicopters off frigates. Then a variety of jobs paying off in 1998 as Commanding Officer of the submarine base in Sydney.

    If you can figure out the cost to package and post to the following we can sort something out.

      John,

      I need your email address and a phone number.  The former is for Aus customs the latter so the courier can let you know of arrival date/time.

      Regards,

      John,

      We have missed the window for collection by the  courier for today.  There may be a small window tomorrow, but not certain.  This will slip collection back till Monday 20/6.  Apologies, but away on  a tour of N Ireland with the TR3 + 16 other TR's. 

      Regards, L

  3. I do have an original overhauled RB106 which is in an air proof bag. It is made from proper copper, not recycled co. as in some foreign makes, and is a proper dated unit in first class order. I woyuld be pleased to sell it to you. It will need minor adjustment every 18 months but it will work properly. Cox Automotive carried out the overhaul and it is like new.

    Send me a personal message if you need it.
