It's alive!!!

I got my engine running last night for the first time! No coolant yet, so didnt run it for long, but wow, what a feeling. I thought my battery was dead, but it turned out the jump lead I was using for the earth strap was not man enough. As soon as i added another (and got the injectors the right way round!) she fired up. what a sound! Such a happy man. Now I have no excuse not to sort out the wiring mess....

If it wasn't for your wonderfully labelled loom, I think it would have taken a while longer yet! I hope the water is finally receeding for you Ray...

Cheers Chris. I have now also made a carbon mount for the Koso clocks. Should look great! Just out of interest, do you know the sender thread size for the temp senders that come with the Koso's?
