looks like there are a lot of knowledgeable people on here hopefully someone can help me.
I just had a 12HT fitted replacing the 2H and it ran fine after a quick bleed. drove it fine for a day then went on a 600km nonstop drive. ran fine, used heaps of fuel though. it is blowing some smoke.
Driving it again around town and it just cut out and wont start again. it fires for a split second but doesnt continue. bled it but no air, stuck in a country town 600kms away from the people who installed it!!! any thoughts on what it could be. im thinking electrical or an oil cut off switch or something like that???
Thanks in advance all!

thanks for your answers, im reasonbly sure it wasnt an imported 12ht but a local 12v. there was one fuse i checked the other day that had been wired into the fuse box when they converted and it seemed to be alrite but i will recheck it and replace it. actually waiting for a auto sparrky mate to look at it as there are some other plugs on the engne not connected and the harness is a mess.
The goldfields is full of corrugations so it very likely that it has come loose and shut the solenoid off>>>instant shutdown.
Thanks for all your help all. will keep you posted as to the outcome.
Rob
