Okay that's an interesting point on the mixture I hadn't thought of. On reflection the car probably is running a bit rich anyway given it needs minimal choke to start and keep going from cold, so definitely something I can look into.
As for the start motor, that's also a fair point. I can't quite recall what went wrong with the old one beyond that it involved a lot of smoke and rapid disconnecting of the battery. I think the lever on top has totally fused in place so I'd assume there was a problem with that rather than the actual motor.
