Duratec First Start
Well its taken me two years to get here, I was actually gob-smacked and astounded, when only after three attempts the Duratec bust into life,
wasn't expecting it too that easy.
I've built the MS2 V3 myself too including the loom and it just started.
I'm on cloud nine
Here's a very shaky video taken this evening showing the fourth turn of the key!

Nice one. I always like a first start.
Balance up those throttle bodies next (I guess).

well done just goes to show megasquirt doesn't have to be difficult. you did even better than me. mine took about ten goes for the first start
as ended up i having to up the fuel a little due to the lower compression of the turbo lump
