So small update I have had my clones refurbed and ready to go on with two new pilot sport 3 tyres

Changed the power steering fluid over and now the pump is much quieter

Then came out my house just before I was meant to drive to Gatwick to find this

Took the inlet manifold off and had a gander, looked like it was coming from the oil pressure sensor:

So ordered a new sensor and a ptfe gasket before I went on holiday and now it's mostly back together, just waiting for the weekend to put the manifold bolts in and a couple pipes. I've ordered some SS nuts with an extra 5mm in length to make up for the thicker gasket. Fingers crossed all is well when I can start it up again as MOT on the the 19th Feb :/.
