yee fucking ha!!

went out this morning and bolted the earths for the battery, run a temporary live for the fuel pump relay, charged the battery for a bit, turned the key and,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
































nothing secs monitor lit up but no dash lights or fuel pump. rung gadget, thanks for your help over the phone mate, he run me through a few things but still nothing, then will (puss) was fiddling around under the dash and everything lit up thanks puss

was a loose plug,

turned the key and it fired after two turns, left it to run up for a bit made sure everything was tight, a few loose things, nothing to worry to much about

well happy to hear her running, she sounded as sweet as a nut

fitted my braided hoses up, will get brake fluid in the week, i used to have castrol srf but have decided to use ate super blue racing, it's a lot lot cheaper and i've heard good stuff about it so will give it a try.

to say i'm happy is an understatement!
