BACK ON THE GROUND> FINALY>


RIPPED THE BACK OUT OF IT>






painted up the new old new 16v servo



im on the worst budget ever since people realised theres a credit crunch etc and stopped crashing there cars grrr. SO i plumbed my own fuel lines. Pirtek.com have tonsss of fuel fttings. i just popped along with my fuel pump/accumulator and bought these,£12 quid crimped onto a high presure fuel hose for the fuel pump to accumulator line instead of £30. I made the entire fuel supply and return for £31.





Primed the gearbox IN ZINGA


Does anyone know how to solve this rubbing issue?

Spacers or a different offset on the wheels will sort the rubbing issue
Looks a great project well done mate
