    Problem starting up disco!!

    Thanks for that guys, the reason the new centre piece had to be replaced was because the baffle screwed up but disco still managed to start but it was rattling so this one they have fitted is another new part, surely this one cant be screwed up like the other one. :(

    Problem starting up disco!!
