akyakapotter replied to akyakapotter's topic in EP91 Glanza Progress Blogs
Went to prime the engine up the other week king lead off as i always do to get Fuel, Oil, Coolant ect round. A was going well oil pressure building. Then herd what I thought was coolant draining out onto the floor. How wrong was I turns out the braided fuel lines had perished inside and had pin holes in them fuel spraying everywhere. Decided I'd get some new fuel lines made up this time round got onto hel preformance and had 3 ptfe lined braided hoses made up. Thought awesome get them fitted and prime the engine up again ready for it's first start. π... Nope wasn't to be fuel pump has now deci -

Slowly making my way through my list of jobs. Cheers nick. -

Decied it was time i got some proper lifts for the car as the jack and axel stands were doing my head in. Decided on a set of kwik lifts much safer imo. So much easier to get it up in the air now. -
Has the ac been removed ? If so you need to bridge one of the connectors by the battery. Will stop the fan coming on straight away.
