Being new to Stilos I wondered what the top ten Tips for Electrical maintenance and Mechanical maintenance are.

As i know a few hours of maintenance could save hours of hard work and loads of saved dosh at the garage.

Hardly - better to buy a decent battery in the first place surely. Mine is still good after 6 years plus!

Checking for suspect earths is an excellent idea - but actually replacing them ALL would be a huge amount of work

Normally if you find a defective earth then it's very easy to fix.

It's the finding part which is difficult.

Adding some extra earth leads is a good investment. There's a guide on here from our Greek friends on how to do it. Use the search faciility.
