Not going to book it until everything is in place and working; Si has enough of a challenge with my Hydra so I'm not going to get him to come over and waste his time

Bits done this weekend; fuel lines finished up ready for connection to swirl pot, loom in -what a pita that was, lots of installing, removing and reinstalling until I was happy- various hoses reconnected, aux belt on and one entertaining discovery. These are the hose clamps for the top rad hose, clearly one escaped the zinc plating Stripping the rust off as I type.


spent ages looking for this too...about as bling as I get


So ended up with this...progress innit

So just for a change today didn't go as planned; I seem to have compressed the first joint of my third finger, its super painful and I can't grip anything with my right hand because I can't bend my finger. Best part is I have no idea how I've done it

So I spent today slowly plugging in all the switch gear\clocks in the cabin to test instead of working in the bay. Photos in a bit...
