Tonight I went out in the garage with the multimeter. I was double checked the connectors and the earth supply for the ignition switch as previously I couldn't get any power to the clocks etc.
I realised I had totally the wrong plug in there. Swapped it around for a more beefy looking one and turned the key. It turned straight away ( took me totally by suprise)
I am going to put in the tank on Sunday so will get a bit of magic juice from the petrol station when I do the groceries at the weekend and have a spare pair of duds to put on afterwards.
My horn is ready to put in as well thanks to skov for sending me his spare relay.
