Blown 0 Posted July 2, 2004 When,after 6 months of having the engine in bits and finally getting it back together,I flick over the ignition and the thing rumbled into life FIRST TIME! The timing still isn't quite right(thinking that the timing belt is out by maybe one tooth) but, my god,it feels good to know that it will run!! :-P 8) :D Also getting that warm glow from knowing that most of the work was done by me! Just the FMIC to get fitted and the toothed belt system to come from Pitstop and I'll be a happy bunny. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Henny 0 Posted July 2, 2004 Nice one... 8) It's such a lovely feeling when you fire an engine up for the first time and it just sits there and purrs back at you... It's one you can't fully appreciate unless you've put the hard work in before-hand to get it to that stage, and, by God, does it feel GOOD! 8) :D I'm hoping to feel a similar glow again tonight when I fire my engine back up after having had to do the headgasket... ;) 8) Just watch out for the face ache that comes from the long grinning sessions you'll have when you take it out for the first drive! ;) :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
