the saga continues
Thanks guys, any info is good info. The current state of affairs is that the boost coil lead was shorting out, once this was replaced she started popping back through the manifold,the starter motor jammed on , and sparks started coming from the driver's control panel resulting in a plenum chamber fire the likes I have never seen before. After about 5 minutes of jumping up & down screaming "FIRE FIRE" mad hand turret traversing to gain acess to the batteries in wich the oil cooler sustained minor crushing 4 litres of water was poured down the inlets to extinguish the flames. The owner has been instructed to "recover" the vehicle from the gully where she currently resides & get it up to the shed where work can restart out of the elements. Will keep you all posted, unfortunately there are no photos of the thick black oily smoke pouring out of all the hatches. Magnificent!!!!!
