No t quite fit and forget. I fitted it and some time later, the rotor carrying the magnets came loose on its taper and led to a sort of Russian roulette firing effect. probably my fault for not tightening it properly. I reassembled it with a bit of thread lock and its never actually given trouble since, though there have been times when I have blamed it wrongly for other faults.
Mark IV is said to be more tolerant of low voltage, though with a Powerbox the capacitor should eliminate that possibility.
