Thank you for your help I will order some and get them installed. My 75 has just covered 132000 and enjoy every moment I go out in it but used to fear it not starting next time I came to it. Now I know what to replace I can put those worries to bed,well until I get the parts and fitted them lol ... thank you again Tracker
