    so since the photobucket farce i havent been able to put up any pictures...

    but i have started the process of taking the engine out as im going to re-build it and while its out im going to freshen up the engine bay and get it re-painted.

    any recommendations on new photo hosting sites?

    thanks

    Hi All, well had the first attempt at starting the car after the rebuild nut had a few small issues.

    Small split in fuel line sorted but can anyone confirm the correct dizzy and plug configuration please as I don't think I have it firing correctly.

    Getting fuel and spark so this is the only other reason.

    I think Haynes has a plug order diagram. Although it would make sense if the leads were 1-3-4-2 anti-clockwise when looking over the gearbox.
