Just when you think its safe to travel.

Hi to all,

All repairs done with a new core plug and a thermostat, fitted an electic fan and moved the radiator back an inch and a quarter to improve engine driven cooling fans effect,(and it has.)
Topped up the heater so turned on blower fan to speed two, switch gave a pop so did a fuse, (fan switch had shorted out) Oh what fun!
So one new two speed fan switch and a fuse, then all the dash board lights came back on ( hooray).
But after a short drive up the a9 the charge light came on, so we limped back home and checked the charge rate at the battery, not a flicker of a volt.
Picked up a secondhand alternator and fitted it to day now charged up at 14.5 volts, should I risk a test drive tomorrow?
I think a past owner is having a laugh from the other side, and its rained all day so my gess is he is ing himself.

Doug.

The worst is.

Hi El-Don,

The Bedshed left in a lay-by a good blazing fire beneath it and me walking home.

The safest option Doug is to just leave it parked outside your house and pretend you are away somewhere else ?
