The car started going lumpy on acceleration, then cut out over a mini-roundabout. Fortunately, I managed to limp off the junction and found a passer-by to drag me out of the way. Straight into the car park of a Cemetery, an omen, maybe?<br><br>As the car had done nearly 600 miles since its last rebuild without fault, this was pretty soul-destroying. And where to start.

A bit of wire and a bulb, in typical Haynes manner, proved out some of the obvious things. The ignition barrel was working. The fuel pump and supply to the Bosch engine ECU were OK. But where in this infernal Citro\u00ebn BX wiring was the fault?<br><br>Two hours after another Citro\u00ebn breakdown, I tracked a lousy connection to the tacho sensor, cleaned it up, and started the car.
