We are in the Midlands. I am led to believe that the relay is ok, the battery is fine and with the relay out and using a fused jump lead I can get the engine to turn over but not fire. Tomorrow I am going to burn the car and claim on the insurance !!
Joking apart I have to trace the red and white feed as I am told I have not got continuity. I have rung Andrew Hirst and cannot thank him enough for his advice and patience. Tomorrow is another day.
