Hi all, reached a milestone today. Been building now for 11 months almost to the day (time permitting) as with 2 kids and no 3 due literally any minute time has been sometimes been hard to "negotiate"!!
Anyway, finally managed to send some fuel through it this afternoon and would you believe it after some fun and games and some petrol in the eye it started!! No idle, very lumpy and lots of pops bangs and whizzes but it ran for the first time!!
Thanks againto R1Pete for the cam spacers in double quick time as the garage pixies had away with my others.
Anyway, if can work out how to post a vid I will later......any suggestions.
Also if anyone has a map for MS that might help me or some pointers that would be great(1.8Zetec, MS1 V3.0 and R6 TB's).......I've built the car but now need to learn how to tune it!!

Big_Wasa....the TB's work and no leaks from the fuel rail....didn't help I connected the fuel to the wrong end of the rail to start with.....that wasted an hour!!
Cheers,
Matt
PS - How do I post video??
