Your fan switch is wired correctly.  There is no low speed, just on and off.

What colour are the wires to the turn signal switch?  GW and GR?

Wires into flasher are LGP and G. With the blower fan the 2 feed wires are green and green yellow. The green is live all the time. The green yellow goes to the switch and never has power no matter where the switch is set.

Could the LGP wire really be a LGN wire?

What are the wire colours at the column mounted turn signal switch.  GW, GR and ??

The fan is wired correctly.  G is fused intone power.  GY is the fan ground wire.  It goes to the switch which has a B (ground) and a RB (rad fan relay ground trigger).

I have got the Turn signals working. The LGN and KGR looked the same. Now need to figure out how to rewire Indicater light on dash.

Electrics at 95% operational. Replaced Flasher unit, indicators lights all work. No power to dash indicator yet. The blower fan only likes to run with engine running. Rad fan turned on by itself when coolant reached the required temperature. New fuel tank in and plumbed. Throttle cable set so that it is fully open when peddle is touching its stop. Choke and heater cables will be installed tomorrow. Buff and install bonnet/hood as well.

Sounds good!

Are you using a two terminal, or three terminal flasher?

I am using a 2 terminal flasher unit. Will a 3 terminal give a feed to the dash light?

Yes.  The third terminal feeds the warning light.  I like Trico HD flashers as their flash rate isn't load dependant.  HD-12 is the two terminal version while HD-13 is the three.

Thanks for the flasher input John, installed and working. I put another mile on the car. Took her to the Land rover/ British car guy in town he fiddled with the carb. tune, running great! I need to find some paved level ground to fiddle with the alignment and ride height. I am the one in the white shirt.

Even better with the door on. Thanks to my nephew. Also got passenger seat and trunk/boot lid on.

Holy Doodle, it's a car!

Get a four wheel alignment.

Europas are a delight when set up properly -- still don't lift when cornering at the limit -- but a bit of a nightmare otherwise.

Duh!

You have the Spyder chassis.  That's a real improvement.

Thanks John, she needs a bath and a vacuum. With all the adjustments in the Spyder chassis I need to get her on a rack and set up everything. I have the specs from Spyder. The English carrier pidgeon must be encountering headwinds. The new driver side door latch is still on it's way. Last thing I need to certify.
