Re: Restoration
My first thought was too much current. What if the steel box section you connected the wires to protruded above the water line (so that the wires are not immersed at all), would that still work?
Clearly, copper has free'r electrons than steel.

Re: Restoration
Interesting point about the glue on the bonnet skin. I have had to take the spare off the front because the glue failed and now I have to pull the bonnet apart and figure out how to straighten the panel, frame, and a suitable aircraft glue.

Re: Heater control valve... again
This is unique to the Stage 1. Your best bet is to get one from Bryan at Design Development. I bought one and it's the bees knees. They are repairable too.

Also, make sure you flush the engine and heater matrix before installing.

Re: Restoration
Nicely done, given the tools to hand.
Mine is getting to the point of needing a rebuild, but I'm put that off as long as possible.

Re: Restoration
I've sent the pdf but it's quite large. Coming via MailDrop so let me know if it doesn't come through.

Re: Restoration
Send me an email to disco2hse@gmail.com. I'll send you the V8 supplement that has a few pages of wiring diagrams for various regions and optional extras.
How did you fit a sensor to the choke cable? My choke cable is rubbish but you can't get the original and I want the choke light to come on.

Re: Restoration
Sand bags on the ground, tied to the corners and half way along the sides should prevent lift off.
