I will have to pull the tank off again to get at the switch to change back to original.
yes it is definitely connected to the condenser which in turn is connected to the point via the points arm,
ok will try the petrol into the spark plug test you suggest tomorrow as its 10pm here now bit dark to see clearly.
I might try to start with the switch taken out to see what happens.
will let you know
Thanks Grumpy again, you have been a most helpful guy where would i be without you (still at square 1)
