    Let's start with the easy bits. Are there any settings switches on the back of the rev counter, and if so how are they set?Check the instrument earthing point.Check the engine and ECU earths.Wiggle the ECU wires while it's running and see if that affects the rev counter display.Jonathan

    Engine starting easily and running smoothly? And the rev counter is steady... not bouncing or flicking? All other electrics working OK? Do you have a multimeter and the appropriate wiring diagram? Jonathan

    Thanks for all those measurements. Very interesting. Please keep them coming. We'll have something to compare with when problems occur. And might even be able to spot some risk factors... Jonathan

    "I have always wondered why the Banner only lasts about 3-4 years when people have told me their experience." It seems to be very variable. Of course that variability could be related to different charging patterns.. Jonathan

    That is neat. Thankyou Jonathan

    Welcome. Have you got all of the documentation: Assembly Guide, amendments, wiring diagram and Handbook? Please let me know if you'd like any of those. Jonathan

    There are some *measurements in the archives, but I don't think that I've seen a guide. While we're waiting for the experts...which engine and ECU, and do you know which alternator? And do you need a wiring diagram? Jonathan * With a lot of variation between Sevens.

    There's a few in the threads linked above. And differences in fasteners are in Shaun's Bolt List. Jonathan

    There's one offer in the Equipment Register: Tonbridge/ Sevenoaks. Jonathan
  13. Jonathan Kay
    I can understand that. Might anyone be interested in them for use that doesn't involve public roads? Jonathan

    That is neat. Could you add a photo, please? Jonathan

    I thought that suggestion was about accessing the top plate of the gearbox from the engine bay... Jonathan

    Thanks, Guy. I hope that there's an acceptable solution. Jonathan

    Do Powervamp still sell their own cage? That was quite neat, and was sometimes bundled with the battery at a discount. It was posted upthread that the PC535 fits the Caterham factory bracket. Jonathan PS: Mine is retained by a bodged and rivetted factory bracket.

    Many (? all) manufacturers will make them pull-up or pull-down and put the buckle which side you want it even if they don't advertise that. Have you asked them directly? Would you be happy to replace your set, or would you rather have them fettled? NB Club discounts. Jonathan

    This hasn't come up as a problem with retrofits. I expect that it's because the integrated battery management system (see above) looks after the battery. But it is interesting that a different mode is needed for a smart conditioning charger when it isn't for an alternator... Jonathan

    It's a lot easier to extract oil if it's warm. Jonathan
  24. Jonathan Kay
    Is that positive pressure on the cylinder and a valve on the outflow? Thanks Jonathan
  25. Jonathan Kay
    There must be some more out there... Jonathan
