Benn's on going build

[Benn]

Christ it's been ages since i've updated this.




While changing some silicone tubing to the DV, (old blue to black)








I noticed the outer shield was opening.. So wondered if this was making it run worse. Swapped to a spare one.





Didn't really help.
Fitted these funky bolts and washers as they look nice.





Off to PVS,
Still missing while driving which wasn't fun.
Horrific when "cold"


Mrs got me this awesome mug for me Bday...





Next up was MHS (Billing but not at Billing)
So i wanted to sort my scuttle cover out where i had a hole for the m/c. So cracked out the fiberglass and resin.





to...





This would of be ok, but i missed in a bit to much hardner. So couldn't get the shaping right...
Off to MHS we went. Sadly with a misshapen nipple on the scuttle cover...


BUT. Back to rocking polished turbo rims!








Which i like and got alot of comments.. So believe people enjoyed too.


And the scuttle nipple...





Great show, but when stopping for fuel, i noticed water pouring out the bottom of the car... GREAT.
All from this!





Swapped to a next black silicone hose from Roose Motorsport.
While i was there still looking at the running issues, i removed my adjustable fuel reg. Just incase it was breaking down and give me issues as i found oif i nailed it hard the car would hit a wall. Worse than the limiter.


While doing that i changed all my fuel lines, cause the braided stuff looks great but is a nightmare to work with. Plus changed my very old fuel filter just it case it helped.





Next up was retro rides...
Running on, with a blip of a misfire every so often.

Back to my scuttle cover.
Started a fresh this time. New cardboard template, spent ages getting it all shaped right, cut a new tidier better m/c hole.



Much better.



This time i cable tied the matting to the m/c cap then did the resin work... So its a proper cap like smoothed in shape.







Bit of sanding then off to get flocked again. Much tidier job.


So still with the running issues.
After reading what people have said, i'm gonna bin off the standard ecu and loom and going after market.
Will be a nicer and better way of doing it all. Better running, fully set up and less sensors too.

Last off a photo from the weekend, just for fun...









Annoying just a little out of line... But you get the artyness.




More soon...

Ever tempted to try out a carbon fibre starter kit 400MM x Meter+ on the bay's around £40; might be possible for such a project..?

[Benn]

A what?
