Update time; getting close now she lives had her started today thanks to Simon Halls, he came to mine today as last weekend me the Mrs and 3boys all came down with gastro virus, he checked all wiring over that I had connected up all ok ! Then we set about stripping my gd 2 bolt 2.8 starter motor and a seized 3bolt 2.9 starter donated by dojj taking the 10 sided spline from the 2.9 and putting it in to the 2.8 starter as the company who were going to do it originally started messing me about, we got the engine firing over but no start up, after 3 cans of fuel and some persuation she fired into life all but briefly...... bet my neighbours loved it as she is currently only on down pipes now issue that has arose my fuel pump seems dead/fucked it used to be noisey now you can barely hear it! also spark plugs need replacing hence her not staying running so have ordered some

My main issue is my prop I have removed it and it is 110% a 2ltr sierra twin cam prop so why is it so tight a few people have said i need an escos donut as theyre slightly thinner than the one I'm using!
