Starting.
Hi geoff,
When you say no noise from starter do you mean it is not turning or the sound is normal?
Apart from that my first checks would be for the effects of dampness at the distributor leads and plugs, WD40 is a must if you are going to run a Bedford.
Check battery earth strap and engine earth strap, make sure your dashboard lights are coming on when you turn the key, or do they go out when you load the key to start, hair dryer on the fuse box can sort this out.
Doug.
