[indicator repeat speed]

Hello Ant

              I would suspect your alternator is not giving correct voltage or fan belt is slipping, because if it is the original type of flasher can it relies in a bit of metal getting hot.

 

A modern electronic type would cure the indicator problem but not the root cause.

 

If you have a mini tester select a dc voltage scale to suit 12 to 15 volts and check the battery at tick over speed, you should have 12+ volts and rising to 14volts as you rev the engine.

 

If not check the fan belt for tightness and wear, if they are ok it is probably your alternator that is faulty.

 

You could just try unplgging the flasher can and look at the terminals if may be dirty connections if you are very lucky or try a different can.

Hello

         Yes that's about it, you just need to measure which size you need to get the correct clearance

Hello Navyguy

                       Yes no problem they are the same poor design as the TR6 mains and big ends can also be done.

 

If the aluminium(monkey metal type) sealing block is not in perfect order get one one the steel ones from the TSSC

[Anyone ever used overnight crossing from Portsmouth to Le Harve]

Hello Mike

                We have used this crossing twice for going to Classic Le Mans and it is ok, I think it is more of a truck ferry a cabin is worth it and will sleep 4 with toilet and shower and towels etc.

 

We live Midlands (Clent) so much nicer than the slog to dover
