mildew inside poptop
my westy has been off the road for a millenia and black mildew has stained the ceiling, does antone know of a cleaning agent that will remove said ming?? the ceiling isnt cloth its a hard surface with what i can only describe as very fine hairlike stuff to combat condensation. if youve got a westy youll know what i mean.

A weak solution of milton fluid or another steriliser (do you have something for your water tank already?) can often bring off mildew, reduce the staining, and shouldn't bleach your fabric too much - but test an area first, rinse well to avoid further bleaching, and dry it out thoroughly.....
Otherwise there are things you can buy that claim to remove mildew, but they're mostly for solid surfaces, and might maybe melt your glue.....

ermm, must be frustrating...
The scientific way is with the DTI after getting all the pullies lined up (crank,cam and pump)
The unscientific way would be to mark the position of the pump where it is now, then slightly rotate the pump clockwise / anti-clockwise and see if starts.
What pump did you use in the end? did you sort out which cables to use?
