  7. yep and i said the same way back on the same page as you glang agree ignition light but a few basic checks need doing paul
  8. but said light was going out when i asked him
  9. could even be the starter going to earth , really needs to do some basic checks when he returns from his run out , battery may be ok is the dynamo charging is the wiring from the dynamo ok to be honest not hard to find the problem . bit of detective work required paul

    used to happen on old engines had a peugeot gti . silicone held it in place until sold in auction . best way to find out give the engine quick clean with brake cleaner give it a run have a look. think you are probably correct not pushed in properly paul
  14. that will depend on what silencer box is fitted / taking a reference point from the silencer wont really work
  15. has the original floor totally been cut away or just plated over
  16. sure should be on the bolt side not nut bonnet fitting
  17. not sure while back since i did mine , they may be handed
  18. properly better without doors easier to get in and out, at my age anyhow . not helpful i know
  19. things will be ok for a while battery will properly go flat though,
  20. not actually saying it is the dynamo , but a few basic tests could save you wasting money , may just be the terminals corroded on the control box or inside , have had it happen on my vitesse bit cleaning up was fine paul
  21. did it come on when you turned the ignition on
  22. i would charge the battery start the car see if ignition light goes out when you rev the engine or flickers then you can do a few simple tests, paul
