Well tested it and worked!!!! Reverse lights are working!!!! But......... I could start the engine in every position of the handle!! So I followed the white red Wires. I hoped to find them connected behind the speakergrill in front. I knew that is an old trick to bypass the switch in case it fails... but everything was original there...... So behind the panel with all the switches I found a tabconnector ( I hate these connectors!) That connected a black(!) wire to the positive of the strarter relais. I removed that wire and all was fine with the inhibitor switch and it functions now as it should!
So progress is made!!!! Still have to sort the ignition because it does not start as fast as i wish. The ignition is in a Lucas 35DE8 distributor. I heard these are not the most reliable around..... Bad luck. I might change this for a better system in the near future. ( suggestions?????)
Fist I have to find out whether there is a ballast resistor somewhere. I could not find it and the postive side of the coil gave 12 volt with ignition on So that could mean there is no ballast resistor present.
