very nice Taylon

just wire it as the diagram shows? Generally speaking as I dont have the benefit of your wiring diagram battery live (red) goes to your ignition switch When the ignittion switch is ON this 'Live' appears at the turn relay as a Brown feed, Out of the turn relay and onwards to the left/right turn switch (Brown/White) From the turn switch, Left on Dark Brown and Right on Dark Green to the indicator lamp bulbs which have a black wire to chassis or battery negative

Greetings Phil, yeah I remember them, had a few myself in my youth, not only was the shift on the right but they were 1 up and 3 down if i remember right

ok mate now please take the time to post an intro in 'new members'

might be worth watching france ebay now and again too, you will have to use google translate if you see anything http://shop.ebay.fr/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p5197.m570.l1313&_nkw=dt*+tenere&_sacat=See-All-Categories&LH_TitleDesc=0

give them a ring john then they will have to answer you!

a dip when you select first from neutral, when idling?...even with a hot engine?

have you tried fowlers of bristol john? you are right about them being rare here, you hardly ever see them, only place I saw one was ebay

Its not something as simple as adjusting the throttle stop screw then?

thats really sad news barmycarmy condolences to you and your family

really glad hes got it sorted

sorry to hear oltimer hasnt been well mate, hope he's good to go now

you seem to have forgot to post an intro!

Greetings Col

If you think about it, when the piston is on the up-stroke it is causing a negative pressre in the crankcase. as the holes in the piston uncover the inlet port in the cylinder bore, this crankcase negative pressure starts to draw fuel/air through the holes in the piston. Eventually the port is uncovered by the piston skirt and fuel/air continues to be drawn in until TDC is reached. so yes...without the holes in the piston you are delaying the fuel air charge and the vacuum developed would be greater...I wouldnt be happy. I wonder if this could account for the 'flapping' noise you reported?
