Thankyou Keith for a quick and helpful response. I’ll give them a try, cheers

Hi, thanks for your responses. I’ve replaced the ammeter with a new one but used the original face/ dial, glass and surround to match the original and all seems well. It seems odd that the only frazzled wire was 40 mm each side of the ammeter.

The web shows that there are about 22 Indy’s registered in the UK. Do we know how many there are in the club and am I the only one doing hands on repair/ maintenance.

(There’s a nice looking Ghibli on US Barnfinds , colour Rame, anyone interested?)

Hi, thanks for your responses.  I joined the wires( minus the ammeter) and everything runs as it should. Just got to find an ammeter now that matches and at a reasonable cost.

Are there others in the club who repair/maintain their older cars and if so where are they?

I’m at the moment trying to sort out a leaking water pump with a replacement seal kit which doesn’t seem to work. Has anyone else been down this road?

Thanks to Prof Christopher Green and Graham. I’ll have another attempt at it when I’m back from holidays.

Kind regards, Gordon Walton

Hi all. The hunt for gremlins continues. The refurbished motors for the front windows work well (speedily up and down) when connected to a direct supply from a battery but are weak and lethargic when operated from the window switches. I’ve dismantled the switches and cleaned the contacts and checked that the limit switches are not cutting in all to no avail.

Are there some relays tucked away that aren’t contacting or could it be an earthing problem?.There’s no diagram relating to the windows in the hand book.

Any help would be appreciated. Gordon Walton

Thankyou every one for your help. I’ll let you know how I get on
