Got my car running!

[jason61c]

Managed to get my car running with much needed oil pressure and now plenty of it at that!

Feels like a major mile stone, just to to strip the electrics off and sort a few bits out and tidy it up now I know what needs to go where to get her running.

Quite impressed with how much quicker it picks up revs too without the aircon/pas/clean air pump fitted.

Fingers crossed for an IVA next year!

The speed it revs up, combined with the torque of that 6 looks very dangerous mental to me.

I was rushing about checking for leaks etc! Maybe slightly drunk with excitement too!
