Re: [doc] MAIDEN VOYAGE

["Dean Mitchell" <deanscheme@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

All in all, it's a little splutterry from first start but then runs really 
smooth.

1.  If it helps Martin, actually my blower's not working at all.

2.  All Posts working - rust been blown off all the discs.

3a.  Light wiring:  Haven't connected yet, but sorted out it's the red that 
needed splicing to the side lights.

3b.  You mentioned in your email that from inside cars perepective:

RED/BLUE - Left
WHITE/BLUE - Top
BLACK - Right

When I saw you, didn't you mention that I would need to move all my wires on 
that socket around by one?   ....But they are the position that my wires 
already are in on the socket.

Cheers.
