The dog rough estate
[Image: nZ9loY.gif]
Not the best gif, meh.

More updates.

The EML light came on after I took the engine out, basically when I last turned the engine off before the engine coming out it ran on with the key removed so it logged a code.

I've had a few problems connecting to the ECU through the OBD port, at first I thought it was corrosion on the contacts of the plug. I had cleaned it with contact cleaner and it started working for a bit but this last week I couldn't connect again so I had a closer look at the plug. One of the pin sockets had damage so I removed the pin from the plug and bent it back in to shape. It seems to be ok now and I'm able to reset the light.

Next up I tidied up the wiring to the air horn that was installed. I'm not sure if I'm keeping it yet, if I do I'll rewire it a bit more neatly and mount the relay properly.

Before,

After,

After that I thought I'd have a look at the repair made to the earth cables thinking that might have had something to do with the dodgy starting.

Well the main cable to the gearbox wasn't to bad but the one to the body wasn't that great as it was loose in the crimp.

You can see here the insulation of the cable going into the crimp. I thought it might not have gone in enough and that could have caused a poor contact.

This is the one that goes to the body, you can see the insulation went in a lot and the exposed copper wasn't held every well in the crimp.

The electricians weren't at work today so I though I'd bodge it.

I got more exposed copper,

Then crimped them in a vice and had something in there to press on the copper.

That's all I could be bothered with today.

I've got a starter on order from Tom just hope that sorts out the starting issue and I've got some fuel pipe on order to plumb the HP pump properly.

I'm also going to try rebuild Chris's old rear beam during the week and I'm going to have a break from the car tomorrow.
