Update time [second time i have written this lost it first time ]

Right Mark phonned me tonight [he woke me up was having a kip ]

Turns out the problem was the wiring to the ignition amp was fucked. Someone at some stage has rewired it for what ever reason and hadn't insulated it properly, this has let water in and knackered all the wiring to the amp Mark said water sarted running out when he was unwrapping it thats how bad it was Mark also said they had wired it up wrong Why do people mess with things they dont understand

My old man said to me once that 'A car is only as good as the person who owned it before you'. Seems like i have spent since June sorting out other people short cuts and fuck ups. If any of the pervious owners ever read this and did those bodge jobs i have a present for you.

Anyway Its now running on the L8 with a base map. Ahmed is Mapping all day on the dyno tomoro so Marks going to get all the other bits sorted. They are hoping to map her on Wednesday and then i will pick her up asap. Fingers X for me everyone, i am hoping she will be at Central day on Sunday.

I Know its taken longer than i thought. Felt a bit of a shit and i wouldnt have dropped it off with them if i had known about the loom problem, but i really cant thank Mark and Ahmed enough for sorting the old girl for me

Also got some new hoses from Roose:

Water:


Filter to turbo and Turbo to IC:


Also have my new steering wheel to fit which i will do after Central day as its at home.

It will just be nice to get her back tbh, needs a bloody good buftying.

Next step is take her down to APT and see what she does on there rollers.
