How's it going?

The engine not the stomach

I really hope it lasts this time mate. You really must have used up all your bad luck lately.

I totted it all up the other day I'm using bits from 8 different engines and gearboxs

And YUPPP today it fired up second flick of the key I know it all needs re-fuel mapping etc but it was ticking over at 4-500rpm...lol

Ok so here are the bad points, its smoking like a tank, although because I used so many different engine bits I oiled everything as I put it together, for one to ease everything on the first fire and two create a bit of coke to seal any dodgey bits

Anyway its running, and the smoke seems to be getting less all the time, it was running for about 30 mins stood still then a 4 mile blast, so not long really and to be honest I think the exhaust was still full of water from when it blew

I mean as it was on the recovery truck water was pouring out of the exhaust joint on the 4-2-1 so its possible its just clearing crap out, the AFR is ok when warm but that doesn't really mean to much as if it was burning oil the ECU would adjust fuel to make it right
