Dam, sorry to hear.

I had a look through the rest of the thread, and it just seems like one nightmare after another.
Your going to have one hell of a story to tell once its all over and done with though.

Really hope you get the car back soon!

FFS will this never end......... :angry2:
There is nothing wrong with the map it all shows as operating well, when you drive the car however something is not right.

So now we need to check if the correct injectors have been fitted, do a compression test, run the car on the rolling road and see what happens on the slow down to see if we have a bearing or diff related issue. :angry2:

My patience is at an end very soon this car will be no more!

Picked the car up today, oh my god, how I have missed driving this car. I can't detect any of the surging it was supposed to of had. Its set running a bit rich for the breaking in period but the power delivery is effortless, well upto 4500rpm for the duration.

I have decided that when it comes to the main mapping again I will being going for a smaller pulley for more power. :D

I think one of the wheel bearings is on its way out it obviously didn't loke standing around for nearly 5 months. :mrgreen:

Awesome, glad that you finally have it back! Ideally you should be able to make some decent power now, but it is good to know that it's working at all!

Finally got her resting at home after clocking up a few more miles of running her in, after marshaling the GT race at Brandshatch.

Great to see that all is well.

If my wife gets her way, and we end up coming to the UK again, I'd love to come and see it, and go for a ride in it.... :twisted:

If you make it over drop me a pm.

Whilst the car has been away I have been thinking about what I would like to do to the rear of the car, so tonight I had a little time and we went from this

to this

Ì used plastidip so it's not a permanent change. Quite pleased with the result just need to use a better quality masking tape if I'm going to keep it next time.

Is it still running or another engine is dead?
