    Old car electrical question.

    I've got a 1946 morris 8 series E. Back story is it was stored from 1966 until my dad got it around 8 yrs ago, then he got cancer soon after and I was determined to get it on the road before he died so he could have a run in it. No welding was required but lots of mechanical stuff was needed...

    OK, Ta. Just been out with the uv torch and lots of stuff is glowing, sticky labels on the ac pipe, oil stains and finger prints! Nowt looking like a leak though but I can't see the compressor connections, too much stuff in the way, everything else looked OK but I'm not convinced to be honest...

    Sniffer...not heard of one of them before. Guess I need to ring around and find a place that has one. How do they work these sniffer things?

    @Grrrrrr The book symbol that popped up yesterday after changing air direction was off today at start up. Never thought to change air direction again to see if it reappeared.
