started the old boy up to day, it started straight away but sounded a bit rough so next weekend i will replace the spark plugs and give it a clean out with some subi foam.

i ran into a bit of trouble running the cooling pipes so i had to raise the fuel tank and run the hoses under it.
i had to mod the tank as a split tank has a non flexible filler neck, so i fitted a flexible filler off a navara that i found in the steel bin.
also used a bike brake cable to connect the old accelerator cable to the subi throttle .
so close now just need some more time

Looking good Bob....

Like the ingenuity when confronted with a problem...

The filler neck problem could be a blessing ,if it also gives you an unleaded fuel opening which would prevent leaded fuel being used, which would stuff up the cat convertor (if you use one...?)

Is it too early to book in for a test drive at Valla...? (Fingers still crossed I'll be there)

Cheers Tonz

you just attach a funnel add 5ltrs of coolant, remove funnel attach garden hose with male fitting and fill untill coolant comes out rad cap.
