The Hall check in the manual we did perform the other day, all checked out. I am still curious to hear back from Peat as to whether he did replace an alternator. At this stage we are open to anything :o)

As I mantioned, everything relating to ignition appeared good on the scope although we don't much use it for that so we wre going to read up in the manual to verify.

Keep the ideas coming!
