Re: McLaren M8 B look alike

Well it was time to hit the button and turn it over for the first time on the weekend how ever nothing happend appart from some fuses popping. Had the starter motor in and our several times and finaly got that to work and then spent about 4 hours tracing where the earth leak was. It turned out that the oil and alternator lights were earthing out and I was also getting a false reading thru the oil pressure switch to earth. After all this fuss was over I then tried for some oil pressure....even though I had filled all the hoses,filter and cooler, then run the pump up with a drill. I have given the pump a good whirl so am now trying JacMac`s litre bottle direct injection methode so will see what the morning brings. Basicly once I have pressure up and my headers are painted,then its noise noise noise.
