Part 5 - Bits everywhere!
No updates of late, but having now picked up my completion kit there'll be no holding me back - LOL. Boxes of unidentified bits all over the place. Still no manifold but am assured that its not far away..........
I now have a pile of wire in a box stripped back from the loom - hopefully I have only removed the bits I definitely don't need - but there is still an awful lot of wire in the MX5 loom. Loom now draped over the car- still not looking forward to this bit. Anybody got a decent wiring diagram for the Mk1 1.8?
Concentrating on getting the rear of the car completed, so have been a little delayed whilst refurbing the MX5 parts and then finding the tank protection bar was missing from my completion kit. As usual, easily sorted but frustrating non the less and then having to fit a longer bolt to the lower rear wishbone as there was no thread showing beyond the nyloc nut on the original.
Also forgot to save the spring clips that hold the handbrake cables from the donor so had to wait for them, but as the pic above shows, backend now complete bar final adjustments.
Moving to engine and gearbox next.
Maybe see some of you at Stoneleigh
