It's the 4 small bolts that bolt the plate on that tend to go missing!
There's always more to finishing the job than you think.
I lost them years ago.There's always more to finishing the job than you think.
Just wiring the starter was bad enough. I couldn't help myself cleaning and tidying the rats nest down there.
So called it a day.
Tomorrow... gear linkage, interior trim, radiator, exhaust, swirl pot, plenum, plug leads, inlet, fuel lines and a lot of checks before connecting the battery.
Derek this might sound crazy but get some high carb drinks in you,,
Stack up,,, you'll go for longer!
Cycle shops have tonnes of them,,
Great for endurance events,,,,,,,, your doing all this on your own,,, in this heat,,,
Do your self a favour!
What a job by the way,, I can't add anything technical but,,,,,are you a lad,,,
I can't be the only one wishing you all the luck on this one. Go on boy
More stress now checking and less stress later when whooping ass.

Its been a fight all the way.
The exhaust slipped on easy.
So a few checks then connected the Oddysey battery and the positive post sheared!
Managed to get another nut on a couple of threads without a washer.
Then with the fuel off i turned the key. Little tight at first then turning over nicely. Turned the key off and it kept turning over by itself so i had to disconnect the battery.
I had this problem last time and couldnt figure out what it was. The only difference was the alternator so i swapped the old one back and it fixed the problem. This is the good alternator so i am stumped!

Found a missing earth on the MS.
It fired up straight away, revved it between 3 and 4k for a couple of minutes till the smoke cleared off the manifolds.
Got a little water leak to fix then will try run it up to temp.
Also need to richen the map up somewhat. The AFR flies about if varying revs but it goes weak if holding constant revs.
