Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Chairman Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 The cooling system is still disconnected while I finish sorting out the electrics, but as my old engine has now roared into life, seemed a shame to let the weekend pass without its kin joining it. (apologies for the very dodgy camera work, as was watching the engine not the phone!) 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Chairman Posted January 11, 2015 Author Share Posted January 11, 2015 Yep, a few bits left to do, and a couple of electrical gremlins to sort out, but not far now. Another quick run, (cooling system's disconnected while the scuttles off, so can't run for long! Not bad though considering that's the fuel drained from the XE car, last December! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Chairman Posted January 11, 2015 Author Share Posted January 11, 2015 Yes, though the fuel is over twelve months old so a tad rough, but no nursing along. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
