[Tigers] Crossed Wires and Facial Hair (OT?)

At least 90% of all electrical problems with British cars are caused by 
a bad ground (earth)!  That is always the first thing to check.  The 
front lamps are notorious for this fault unless you have corrected it by 
running a separate ground wire.

On the subject of white facial hair - more is better.  It is a sign of 
wisdom and adds a distinguished air to those who display it.  Sort of 
like silver-back gorillas! ;>)  It is advisable, however, to pay 
attention to the position of one's beard when messing about with British 
electrics, as I have discovered that there is Lucas smoke stored in my 
beard (probably a result of pretty near 50 years of close proximity to 
British cars.)
