Problem solved - had checked the wrong fuse. And I hadn't even started on the beer......

OK - so had the fast flashing indicator. Checked the bulb badly seated, but couldn't replace without it becoming unseated again. So I (foolishly it appears) tried a different bulb holder - now none of the indicators work.

Ideas?

I have similar issue with 1989 model: 3rd is always fun to find and 1st can only be found from 2nd.
I found changing the oil in the box helped (amazing amount of metal on the magnetic plug) somewhat, but can still be a challenge now.

Thanks - that sounds a likely one. How difficult is the strip and cloean (without access to my Haynes, I'm not even sure where the governor is!!)

I used my discos jack and a socket, but even after jacking it up quite hard there didn't seem to be a huge amount of extra room for the circlip. Then the PITA of fitting the circlip almost sent me round the bend. I will follow the advice on tapping next time- if I'm honest I wasn't a 100% sure...

How did you go about getting it off? Did you use a puller? All the stuff I've read led me to leave it well alone, but I guess it may be worth a punt.
