I took Uly to work yesterday as I had a dental appointment in the morning...

As I went to go home, I fired Uly up but she gave a ticking sound and no crank, so I tried again and she started fine. Off I went up the road, and within a mile the Check Engine Light came on, bugger I thought, but I carried on, then a mile further on, I noticed the instruments weren't working... Hmm... I kept going, then just in front of The Bear and Rugged Staff, a pub I wheelie past during the summer months to give the drunkards outside something to enjoy, it came to a stop.

So I parked up and caught the #2 bus home. I returned with the car and trailer and carted her home.

Turned out to be the regulator (£190 retail), all fixed now...

I took the liberty of updating the How To...

Very convenient breaking down outside a pub!!!
