Judging by your latest post - id take bets on it being that!

EDIT: By the way, check my project thread - ive been having similar problems and replaced the voltage stabilizer last week (although it didnt make any difference!)

P.S: its just a little 1" x 2" box with 3 spade connectors fastened on the back of the two gaues
What-ho, Steve.

I have been following your thread for many moons and your probs with the voltage regulator caused a pang or two for me; I've already changed mine, got it from Simon at Brookhouse and it made no bl**dy difference!

My mate Tim now has TWO 142s and as he's stripping one of them for track fun he said I can have a set of clocks (which I'm sure has 0 to do with the fact that I have a pair of series one steel wings in my shed!) so when they arrive I'll be posting on here as soon as they are fitted.

Nick.
