Finally got her fired up this morning
Runs really nicely, very pleased, not even a noise from the lifters and the engines not been run since 2006 i think.
Tony@turbosystems sorted a base map out for us last night,
Started off by pulling the dizzy out and spinning the oil pump drive for a few minutes with a drill to get some oil round the engine, oil pressure looked good.
Popped a new dizzy and rotor arm on and the leads from my old engine as im waiting for new leads from R&B motorsport to suit the small turbo cam cover and dizzy, spun her over without the coil connected, then plugged her in and nothing
plenty of fuel, but no spark
after an hour of head scratching i realised some muppet had connected up the earth to the coil rewire loom not the live, swapped this round, and she fired straight up
i then spent the rest of the day trying to sort the banjo sealing washers on my 044 pump think ive got it sorted now.
Need a to sort a PF09 throttle position sensor, get that fitted and get it booked in for live mapping oh and re-do my half moon seals on the cam cover as its leaking already
