Hi Jim,
Chris coudn't find the fuel pump, which actually helped.
So we gravity fed the carby and the found ignition had no spark.
I removed every contact point going back to the switch.
While turning the ignition on and off several times it came good on it's own.
Chris followed me home.
My guess is the car has an ignition switch fault.
I'll check it out over the next couple of weeks.

A fella here also got additional wiring laced in (using the original colour codes etc for extra lights etc)
30-40 year old wiring can be just too dodgey sometimes.....its a risk that all owners of older cars take every time they "press the plonker" and fire up the car (oops! no pun intended
)
Cheers, Mick
