It's ... ALIVE!!!!!
oil pipes connected - check
fuel pipes connected - check
fresh petrol poured all over me - check
rest of petrol poured into the fuel tank - check
Fuel pump primed and fuel filter showing 'full' - check
following starting instructions
runs and stops
runs, stops and backfires - not good
Check HT leads are in the right order ... D'Oh, dizzy turns clockwise .... swap cylinders 2 and 4 on the dizzy.
Not loud as in "turn that music down" loud, not even ACDC at Hampden Park loud .... oh no, this is wearing ear defenders and earplugs and don't stand too close especially if you're in an enclosed space loud.
It's 'the camera is being shaken off the tripod from 10 feet away loud'
It's fantastic
The video does NOT do it justice
