I need new lines, jeleaous of double flaring

double flaring kits on ebay are <$50....not like I can talk.

Nice job on the car Mike - see you on Sunday.

grumble, couldnt drive it today, clutch and fuel pump issues

Nearly there. That'll give you some last minute stories to tell the grandchildren. That is assuming that the car doesn't over excite you to the point of testicle explosion.

Do you think you'll still make it?

dunno, need to replace pump and bleed clutch, but there was some horrid thrust bearing type noises which have me worried

is the bearing noise from sitting too long unused, and then they sort of free up? i remeber my a series doing that.

thrust bearing shmust bearing! good to see the old motor fired into life :D

what box are you using?

yeah motor fired up like a charm!

using a skyline stumpy, will bleed clutch and take it for a drive and then yeah, fingers crossed the thrust noise goes away, there was no sign of it on the first day i got it going and drove it

ran the pump in reverse (wired backwards) for a little while before i figured out it was wrong, think thats buggered it, have to tap it with a hammer to get it to go so must be binding up

That's unfortunate. Get on to Mildman for a pump.

just been past your house don, didnt hear the BOV? lol

Supafatto had a pump, chucked it in and bled the clutch and its all good now, noise disappeared after 30 secs

Its awesome again! been cruisin a bit all going really well, didnt get above 60 degrees so may have to put a switch on thermo and throttle cable a little short so idle is too high

lots of little bits to tidy up before cruise, but not all will get done
