Yeah, I almost fell off my chair when I got the price. I'll keep you updated on how it works. :thumleft:

I would suggest you check if you have a spark before checking the expensive bits. Might just be a dead spark plug.

Thanks for that. I'll give it a bash. I run the same combination.  :ricky:

"swop them around" you mean change the rotation? Would be interesting to know if that's possible.
