    Manstein, happened to me also, but L7apk said he was not getting power to the starter button. "but no power to the switch.". At least that is the way I read it. BC

    No power to start button

    # 74 comes from # 27 from the Ign. Sw.then to the starter button and then from there to the starter relay. # 27 comes from the B terminal of the Ign. Sw. Should be very short wire. Either it is broken or the Ign. Sw. is not powering it for some reason. Get out the multimeter and poke around :D...

    Another revived MV

    Will, when you say conventional, do you mean radiator and fan or a closed engine loop and a raw water side with a heat exchanger, being the keel cooler?

Any that looks as though it has "gone by", he stores in barrels and has to pay to get rid of. Well, he offered it to me if...
