Absinth, I did not get a coil and it looks as though it would be the most difficult bit on the board to replace, so that is a last resort at this stage. I replaced the two larger caps last night and will get back onto it when the rest of the bits arrive.

Replacing the board with one that works and still having no luck does not make me too confident, but lets hope.

Thanks for the links Byron, I reckon that a RAAF tech and me would be close to the same skill levels...... not
