[QUOTE="jimbobalero, post: 548929, member: 21191"] First time out the battery disconnected itself halfway round a round-about, quick trip to halfrauds 2 new battery terminals that can actually be tightened up, bought and fitted in about 10 minutes. I had a good look at the engine and the manifold has the pipes for the pre-heater, the bit in the that should connect to is there and blocked off, so I guess I just need the pipe that goes between the two. Also can those blanking plates be removed for connecting the tinware to the heat exchangers? The engine keeps cutting out at idle but I have noticed that the left hand side manifold seal only has one jubilee clip on it and leaks petrol, also presumably sucking in air, does that sound like the cause of the problem? (Beautifully hidden by the wire from the distributor on the pic I posted.) All help/advice gratefully received [/QUOTE]
