So start investigating all connections. Especially that fun stuff on the right with the boot floor.

Noooooo! Ah well, next time mate.
Chris @internets, looks like another Thelma and Louise rerun...

Trying to read the ECU wouldn't be my priority. It was running, taken apart, reassembled and now it's not running. So it's 99% something you didn't reconnect.
How did you check spark, fuel pressure and injector opening?

Can't stick this one on Boeing, much as they're getting what they deserve lately. On this occasion it's poor maintenance.

Many a true word...
I shall have to dig out some pics.

No, I REALLY enjoyed it

Flew on that one twice. You'll probably be able to tell which seats I sat in.

Even Concorde's wings would generate some lift in a stiff breeze. But it wouldn't properly lift until nose-up at around 200mph. Ah, it has no engines so would lift more readily.
Jeez, I'm a sad geek.

About bloody time! Took them ages. The Hudson isn't a particularly friendly place for an airframe.

That'd be a bad day for Earth.

We're on our way to Brussels for a couple of days of waffles, fries and beer. And, of course, meeting @Escape!

They are very good if used properly. I happen to have one that can accommodate a stripped-out Dellorto...

The setup will differ depending on model and brake setup. I start with factory, then adjust until I find the spot I want. TBH I was probably a bit silly at 1 bar, but I'll always settle around 20in Hg.
All other variables should be in the braking system outside of the scope of the kit, with the exception of pedal drill point and play at top of travel.

Nope, not going to reconsider. Might be a hiatus at present, but there are way too many humans on the planet.
In our arrogance we cull species in regions around the planet if we feel they are damaging the ecology. Seems we're not prepared to extend that logic to ourselves.

Ah, understood. Still applies; just not to you!

TBH no amount of reduction in any emissions will resolve the cause of this whole ecological disaster: population growth. But nobody seems to want to acknowledge this simple and obvious fact. So deep down we all know what the 'final solution' should be. And the planet has been doing its best lately. Eventually it will win.

This was mooted as far back as 1985...

Then whoever fitted it should know better than to set vac at 0.5bar! Just been discussing this with Ian, in fact: the more people think they know, the less they read the instructions. There's a reason pilots go through the checklists every. single. time.

As you can imagine, my daughter's not best pleased. Anyhow, to steer somewhat back on topic, he's a great example of the effect of the EV propaganda machine. Flawed EV ideology is apparent everywhere, and many of the great unwashed are swallowing the bullshit.
I'm not an ardent EV naysayer; I just feel it's dreadfully flawed in its current form and few in control are being honest about it. Of course they're not: money is involved.
