BMSeven first start :D

Hi guys,
Following on from my progress post yesterday, me and the old man gave the engine another go today... and it started

took a while trying to work out if the sensor was in the right place, and it was. But i think what was happening was it was overfuelling, and still is, meaning it wouldnt start. It was only when the fuel in our make shift tank more or less ran out that it started. But ill sort that out some other time, just so happy it started! Over 2 years that engines been lying around and a homemade intake manifold, a set of GSXR600 carbs, ford EDIS system... and it fired. ANyway enough rambling... the compulsory video is here for all to enjoy:
First start Vid

One last thing, thanks to everyone on here again... i know it definatly would not be running if it wasnt for you guys!

good to see it finally started...

great feeling when it starts for the first time. Mine has been off the road for 7 months undergoing a EFI conversion, hope to start it in the next few weeks.
