Not sure how much travel you should see/hear on the solenoid but like all these things it should be of a clean action...if you know what I mean  |
No problem turning off. But maybe there's corrosion that affects the advance solenoid. I'll try to measure the signal coming to the solenoid and test the solenoid itself a little better.

Interestingly, your symptoms sound very similar to those written about in this UKDieselParts blog.

I actually stumbled upon this yesterday. Hopes are high, that it's this and not the loom.
