Yes I think so, if you're on about the part you need to swap for an LED friendly one so it's not flashing a million times a minute.

That's the one lol. Although I don't see why they are not working at all at the moment without the flasher unit

Dunno, have you got them wired the right way round? Do they work when supplied with 12v constantly?

Yeah I deffo had them wired the right way round. Not tried them accross the battery yet. Guy in the shop said something about a resistor(?) so need a different flasher Anyway he said find out how many pins it is and he might have one I can have.

Yeah there is a bodge to make them flash at the right speed whereby you ballast the circuit with more resistors to waste the same amount of power as the stock bulbs use.

We have a running banana.....
But it's leaking oil Not sure what sort of rate or from where but after a 3 minute run the left hand side engine casing had a thin coating and the sump was dripping. Will degrease and inspect

degrease it and cover it in baby powder. Wherever it is coming from it will leave a trail in it.

Cheers diz , gonna have to do it tomorrow now as it's in my elderly neighbours garage (joint to the house) and the can is very loud. I walked into our house after running it and my mum at the other side of the house had the tv on really loud (old age!) and she span round "so you got it bloody going!". I imagine old dot might of felt a rumble
