Just seen the engine was built by B O'Hare - hopefully he's not one of the trainees laugh

Also, I've had a flicking rev counter for a while and decided to get a 100a fuse to try as a quick fix, anyway, turns out the car already has a fuse modification and a 'proper' fuse holder, the fuse is in good nick.

I've also got what appears to be another fuse directly off the battery - clear tube with a wiggly thik wire in - again in good condition)

If it's not the fuse causing a flicking rev counter, what's my next port of call?

Cheers!

(will get a photo of the fuse)

The very same chap who built mine according to the plaque on the front cover. Apparantly these were only fitted to the later cars.

The "B" is short for Brian, and he is held in high regard for his engine building skills. smile

Mine is intermittent as well but not the big fuse that's the problem,I think it's the actual rev counter itself that is faulty.
