Mixed day today ( Tuesday).
Started well the Brakes are bled & fine. Within a few seconds of trying to bleed the the Clutch it was realised the Master Cylinder was seized in the pedal down position.
Sounds easy but all the heat Shields had to be removed to remove it & that aint easy . The cylinder is mullered & ive ordered a new one to be delivered on Thursday.
Also found an electrical gremlin, the car last ran with SM2 & the changeover to SM4 has not been tried in car. I thought that because it worked on the Dyno that the loom was proved correct, but we didnt drive the Fuel Pump on the Dyno & their is a problem. A quick look at the circuit diagram showed that a second relay is required on my set-up as the Pump is driven off 15v not 12v & needs to be ECU triggered not ignition triggered as it was before TWAT.

More fun on Wednesday.
