i'm on holiday at the beach, enjoying the mid autumn weather. the s8 is tucked up at home sulking, while the jeep gets a work-out.

i find that the tractor wouldn't start (1955 fordson 3-cylinder diesel). upon investigation i find that someone who i let use the bach has given it a bath. a salt bath. so, bit by bit i have taken the wiring to pieces to re-wire and repair. generator out. regulator out. etc. etc...

still it's not that bad. i produced a complete wiring diagram for it today (visions of the s8 wiring diagrams - all 300-odd pages).

took about 1/2 of an a4 sheet of paper!
