coils arrived today. i cant make my mind up wether to paint the turbo filter or just leave it blue??? will get the hoses made up tomo.



all the stuff came for the loom aswel so started makeing that.i like the pectel braided style ones but really like mike raindirds loom made in heat shrink still all labeled up so thats the way im going.
started by sorting the wires out theres that many inputs/outputs and things ive had to add is quite a head fuck!! twisted all them together with a drill to keep them neat before getting right lengths and finishing off with labels and plugs etc
4 x relays

1 for fuel pump, injectors
1 for nos on/off
1 for coils, iscv, boost solonoid, speed sensor
1 for water injection pump
my head hurts

lookin good mark, not long now mate

 

I also hate wires!!

 

lol and what will we do about it??? change trades?!! will we fuck wel be doin this the rest of our lives! not that bad i suppose . . . .

 

I only hate them because I work with them!! I used to hate mechanical work until I gave that up! Still hate services though. Boring job....

 

hehe sorry andy!!!!

 

Mark what you doin up at that time?

how can you both hate wires!!!!

your bloody auto electricians

p.s mark, fix my alarm

 

Aj no one would steal it anyway lol!

Rather nev than me mate!

 

I hate wires because I'm sick of the sight of them!!

 

aj come down and il sort it! will only take 5 mins probs faulty sonics?

 

done some more on the loom today. offered it all up next to the engine n got it all measured up. heat shrank it all and used the adhesive stuff in the joints. takes alot longer than youd think! alot harder to use than the braided stuff anyway i think!




got a proper dymo labeller with heat shrink. using white rather than the normal yellow. hope it looks ok! ryan uses clear heat shrink over the top aswel but i think it will be ok if i look after it. can always de pin and add at a later date anyway





will hopefully get the plugs on tomo morning if i have time and check everythings ok, hook it up to engine, power up and make sure everythings a ok! if only i could start it!lol not lkong now . . . .

 

nice

 

yours n mike r's looms made my mind up to do it like this mate! i spoke to daz c about it and e mailed omex asking them what they made them out off and hey presto!! so cheers lol

 

Mark,

I'd heat shrink it now mate. Those sticky labels won't last that long.

 

they are actually heat shrink labels mate the printer prints striight onto the flat heatshrink. so as long as i dont get them dirty i think theyll be ok. have no use for it now so if you ever need to boro it its there mate

 

Great work mate looks good.

 

Thats fair enough Mark. Just thought it was a label printer. Did you get that from RS Components?

I'd probably still put clear heat shrink on it but that's just me!

 

i want a label maker

 

i wish i had done now! impatient tho!! andy if you ever need it just say theres a bit of heat shrink left aswel

 

well looms finished. double checked it all this morning then got it hooked up to a battery + lap top. to say im happy is an understatement its a proper good bit of kit! although i programmed all the inputs and outputs that im using then the batt went flat on my lap top before i saved it so had to do that again!

 

Nice carpet!!

 

Looks like a bit of 'new terratories'

 

was wandering!! the front room carpet lol

 

bored shitless so i thought id plug it all in to see all the temp sensors etc working and set tps up before i put inlet on (ball ache to getr to screws with it on) everythin spot on!


i want to fire it up!!lol

 

That is very nice that loom

Might have to seek your help when it comes to refitting my "other" car loom. Focus RS engine loom, attatched to a MK6 Fiesta full car loom, all sat in a box

 

will be fine once all split up and layed on floor. how far is skelmersdale from st.annes/blackpool?

 

About 45-55 mins I guess. I go to Myerscough College which is nr Garstang and that take me 35-40 mins each way
