Sylva J15 Build Progress - test run

This is forth in the series of videos I have done over the last year. This one shows a small test run on private roads to evaluate the brakes etc. I hope to submit to the dreaded IVA next month as although it looks finished there is still quite a list. I am getting engine surging when the clutch is depressed something to do with the ECU detecting the clutch has been pressed.

Enjoy

Good luck with the IVA test! Let us know how you get on.
