Ran my facet pump into my ignition, mounted fuel pressure regulator onto bulkhead, searched high and low for a slightly shorter fan belt, fitted my omex rev limiter, set it up briefly at 7k, ran up to temperature, balanced 40s best we could by ear.Then went on a little test drive. Fuelling still miles out, shot a backfire so big on a gear change it blew my rear silencer off one of the rubbers! Rolling road in the week a john hardmans to be set up properly if he can squeeze it in. Oh and ordered my oil cooler kit from tweeks!
Attacked it with a wire brush
How much is left of the car? :eek:Quote:

Quick check over for the MOT tomorrow, bloody drivers washer jet is not working!!!
After an unsuccessful attempt to unblock it I went on the hunt for a new one. Commence an hour long search through the loft to find the new ones I bought a while back.
Eventually found a bag of them and chucked one on. Fingers crossed it will pass OK tomorrow.
Started it up to see if I could find the fault it flashed up at my last track day but no codes were stored. :(
polished and waxed it then attempted to drive it and realised the rear brakes were seized..
girlfriends dad sorted that out took it for a run and alls good :).. tax it next week then she's on the road after sitting up for 2years, chuffed :)
well after a few days of scratching my head and preparing to get my new engine this saturday... Remembered I needed to finish off fitting the dash, and then remembered that I have a problem with it...
Any ideas on how to sort this out? The dash has taken a knock and has broken the mounting point to bolt into the bit at the top of the dash behind the clocks:
View from the top of the dash just outside the windscreen:

Proper annoyed at my own carelessness.
Started refurbing my nova after 7 grueling months of wear and tear.. Replaced the standard hubs with a set of fiat alloys, rubbed down all rust and coated it, re-painted the red trim around the bumpers, and gave it a real proper clean !
Washed it ready for tomorrow.
