If one starts from the premises that John Wayne was right and...........

"The only good Injun is a dead Injun"

Then I should be a very happy bunny this morning since the injun on my 400SE died on me over the weekend and in very suspicious circumstances. So, could any of you budding Inspector Cluesos out there suggest anything?

The symptoms were as follows....
Started her up fine, went 15 yards down the drive, pulled up to go back and lock the gates and as I put the handbrake on I heard a click from the fuse box/relay mounting area under the dash on the passenger side. A split second later the engine cut out and refused to restart. I've visual checked all the fuses and relays in that area and they all look fine. The click incidentally sounded like a relay opening or closing as opposed to a fuse blowing.

Ideas on a post card please.....

Does the fuel pump buzz away when you turn the ignition on? I recently had problems with mine which were traced back to the pump relay/power supply.

Yes, but I'm trying to block that fact out in favour of a simple......CHEAP! solution

Your engine must be broken if you can hear a relay clicking!

Sounds like mortgage top up time! There is a very expensive looking box under a panel by the relays. I wonder if its the same as the SD1 box?
