Yes thanks to the forum and your help.
Though running the car about 3 weeks ago to get the temp up to do some fine adjustments with the mixture screw I must have leaned her off too much and it conked out and wouldn't start again
I noticed the top rad hose was hot and the bottom one cold, so I am guessing the thermostat must be stuck closed. That is now on the to do list.
I left the car for a few days then tried restarting it, it fired and run for about 2 seconds. I will readjust the mixture once I have fitted a new thermostat and report back. Glad there is no rush to get her going properly
