    Thanks Nigel, i have a new battery coming in the post which i was thinking i could jump start from using leads then disconnect and check the voltage i'm thinking the 2 batteries i have have suffered the same fate and one has leaked. good to hear i maybe able to fix the alternator with a regulator pack but dont know if anything can be done for the batteries to keep as a spare. So hope to get to the bottom of this in the next couple of days when the battery arrives Mark

    Took the caterham out for a short run and on returning home there was a bad egg smell coming from the car, so did a search on here to discover that I have a cooked and leaked brand new odyssey battery which I have removed. From my searches on here I’m thinking alternator as I now see it should be charging at 14v where I recall seeing 17v coming up on the dash although I need to check this to be sure. Didn’t think anything of the 17v as I had no knowledge of what it should be. Before I start removing the alternator (looks an awkward job) what checks should I be doing to make sure that it is the cause . Thanks Mark
