more to the point how much is the hire fee :D

quick check for whether it is fuel or ignition (aa man tip) is to spray brake cleaner down the carb intake as it ignites better than petrol. if the engine fires - either on the crank or the starter - then dies it is a fuel issue, if it doesn't fire it is ignition I know you say fuel is getting...

good call, hadn't occurred to me, certainly the better way to do it, agree hard top on its own is worth next to nowt

I did a similar thing a few years back, managed to find a complete set of hardtop fixings (used) on ebay
