Thanks for your help on the low power issue i had. I think i solved the problem it was the lead coming from the power pack to the coil. It appeared to be swollen and very soft. It also appeared to be shorting on the heads. after re routing it and insulating the wire we test ran it on saturday and appeared to be working fine. Time will tell. In your opinion could this have been the problem or do you think it could have just been coinsidence that this was found.We also tested under load by pulling two ski biscuits and the motor did not faulter. Thanks for the info and help. Budda.
