Linkert

The Indian started to behave itself, now with me on reserve and miles of rolling moor in front I could either worry and panic about running out of petrol or sit back and enjoy the view, I picked the later, as we rolled into Travistock Luke asked a very nice lady directions to the nearest petrol station. All filled up and only 12ish miles to go. Not 400 yards later I see a flash from under Andy's seat and the Indian comes to a sudden stop. A road side strip down ( using tools from all three of us ) finds a intermittent feed wire from the battery, cause a second "pair of points" and hence the miss fire, all crimped and rebuilt and off on the final final miles.

We knew it wasn't broken just not working, so fettling was the order of the day, lots of thinking and the right amount of action
