Yes, have checked all the chaff areas and fitted foam buffer. No sign of arcing etc. Today I removed the PCV and the bike fired up and runs ok!
So it looks as though the PCV was somehow upset by the batt terminals being off/on/off/on a couple of times.

I'm glad she's a runner again but disappointed the PC appears so fragile.
It came from Off the R de and is only about a year old. Will see what they say. Thanks a million for your helpful suggestions.
