 Re: Jeremy AKS400 Super hour and 45 mins start to finish. turns over fine and fired up. earth fault still there and I dont believe its charging very much if at all either... more revs should charge better but mines uses volts... will check sunday whats going where exactly.... wiring is not my strong point!

Re: Jeremy AKS400 Super Tim2cv wrote: now the fun can really start. there are two options to change the starter, both require the wings and panels to be removed and by the looks the quickest and safer/easier option is to remove the engine from the gearbox... theres Sunday booked up then!
should I risk fitting a spare I have or try to buy a new one? is it likely to go wrong again? the one I want to fit was on the engine when i got it, not the one thats been sat in a garage on the 1220cc since 1984 or before? I'd take it to an auto electrician for a check-over and possible recon before fitting. It's a PITA, but it doesn't require engine-out - not even Citroen are THAT daft. Just remove the inlet manifold...

Re: Jeremy AKS400 Super 1st drives seem fine... steering no heavier and ride the same. but these grip (where required lol) and they were only £47 each delivered and £5 fitting and balanced!
hung doors properly today too so no one else will fall out on foreign roundabouts (sorry neil) lol

Re: Jeremy AKS400 Super Czech trip wasn't so successful... ended in a fail picture after dangerously battling to avoid the breakdown recovery. It was too unsafe even for me to drive any further in the end
