Since were on the OD topic
.
I took my MkII BT7 out the other day, first time for ages, 8 weeks+/-.
Anyhow, the OD didnt work. Id been to a carpet trimmer and left my tunnel
cover with him so access was easy
The solenoid was very hot
too hot to touch which made me suspicious. Anyhow,
I did my OD electrical click-test and it failed at the first hurdle. So, I
took the solenoid out and
well, look at the picture.
The plastic/nylon cover to the points and wiring was virtually welded in
place. And the inside is a complete mess.
So, the OD was rebuilt about 50 miles ago by OD Spares and Im happy with
the wiring. My question is this
is there a frequent or a probable cause to
these fry ups?? These things check out at about £50:00 so I dont want to be
chucking them in at regular intervals. Anything in particular that I should
look out for???
Thanks,
Simon
