First start

And it runs!!!!

Exhaust :) 125mm steel tube goes from mufler to outside. Dying in carbon monoxide poisoning is not fun so this was my solution.




I look quite suprised that it started. :)

Car was running for about 25min. Then adjusted timing and fuel pressure. No leaks. Everything was fine. Running rich but that was expected.
Then stopped the engine and there was a smell of coolant in cabin...........shiiiiiit!!!!!


1 hour and 30 mins later I had the carpet out and it was wet from the drivers side. The last owner had done some magic of his own. Body filler in heater return tube. Marking indicate that some pliers have been used and the tube was crakked.






So now I have to dismantle the dashboard........great.
