Thanks Nixy Its always nice to be able to help out. I live in a village where everybody chips in so its the same principle on the forum.
Was a little embarassing when we picked it up, trying to get it up the ramp and the guy who actually recovered it said " the engine works, drive it up " none of us knew how to start it.
Its safe now anyway
However....... thought you told me it was a moped Nixy, .... its very heavy
