Good work Lee, sounds like he should have come to you in the first place, keep showing this stuff and are never going to get a proper retirement.

Job done properly to my standards.
It's a real looker now.
It's had five and half full days we are nearly there. So I still got easily three years left on it, going by the other guy. What was he doing all that time ?

Just tried to electrocute myself with my own wind up megger, poking about in coil checking the insulation on the ht side, found out the insulation is less than good. Ouch ! It's given me a love bite.
ouch, used to do that all the time when working on my cars. ached for ages afterwards

It lives ! Combustion is taking place in all four cylinders. Long way to go yet, but the basics are there.
Always a satisfying experience eh Lee.
