Well I went up to the barn and finally got the mk1 fired up after 2yrs. Yeehah! I have tried to get it to turn over for the last month, new battery,no go, new solonoid, still no go, the starter worked on the bench but not on the car, eventually found it was shorting down internally, so new starter. The engine turned but would not fire so I shot some fresh fuel down the weber with a syringe, not my safest idea, but with an almighty flame out of the carb it fired up, 2, then 3, then hallebloodylujah, all 4. Small battle won over a 4week time span, but as a raspberry with only 45 minute working time each visit due to spinal damage, just ask me if i'm happy, I've got a grin like a split watermelon (but burnt eyebrows).
