Litrally first start to that was, Cranked it without plugs to get pressure back into the system and checked with pressure gauge.

Just concentrating on prep now, Started a new job so its threw me abit behind but this should be done for action .. :)

Right, long over due update !!!!!

Put it this way, cars been back on the road since September/October.
I had a new job down the road from me so this was perfect as i could ride to work and keep this in the garage and use it when needed etc.
I then got offered a new job within UTC aerospace as a calibration engineer, this is located in wolvo and is a 30 mile trip there and back each day, so the car then became a daily which is a shame as all the nice paintwork and painted parts has took abit of a hammering.
Ill let the pictures talk many words !!
