[SEL] Ruston & Hornsby 1ZHR at Barleylands

[Listerdiesel]

We took the Ruston the the Essex Country Show at Barleylands, near
Billericay, Essex at the weekend.

Had a fault in the alternator which stopped up from loading it for
much of the time, but it ran 8 hours non-stop on the Sunday, just
oiling and water topping up required, it was off load so didn't use as
much fuel as usual.

Got to pull the armature out today and see what has caused the Magic
Smoke to escape, it looks like a major connection as we lost the AC
output and the DC starting.

The control box was a little 'drunk' and leaning a bit!
