The PS pump is plumbed so it wasn't long before I filled it with fluid and hit the starter. Mmmmm a beautiful sound, well mabe not that good through the asthmatic exhaust. There are a couple of glitches to sort - a tacho that sits on 400RPM and an
oil pressure gauge that sits at zero. The engine didn't sieze while I played tunes on the throttle so I feel confident it is a wiring issue.
Sambo - it was great to catch up, I hope you can sort the pulley issues.
Greg, I followed your tip with the PS, I won't be at the meeting Wed. (work xmas dinner)
Thanks everyone for all your encouragement
Peter
