Temporarily mounted a high pressure pump and she runs a beauty. Got an intermittent noisy tappet but hopefully that will go away when I can take it for a run. Engine management light (rear defog) works a treat and I figured out the rev counter wiring, turns out the brown rev counter wire in the engi...

My mate welded the manifold up, exhaust is back together. Next stop fuel pump and bleed the water system

It's a speed sensor for ecu. Was fiddly and abit messy though.
Had her running last night off a temporary fuel feed, exhaust and fuel pump to do and engine side of things is done. Electrics worked as expected so must have done something right!

Vss installed. Actually used the whole vitara speedo bit and mounted inside the sj housing. Added the 2 wires to a connector, one for vss the other for ground.
Engines now completely piped up and water tight. Exhaust manifold and fuel pump to do.

That is looking absolutely stunning, almost clean to use

Nothing but law abiding citizens here

Good work. It's a proud moment when your build gets mot'd and you go for the first drive.

I wasn't being the police and checking up, I'm certainly not one to follow rules, as you can tell from my builds

Saw the videos, looking good! Got the mot sorted now?

Might come up and do a clog trip with you, see this beast in person!
