S4 Rebuild Apathy !!

[el-saturn]

nobody will read this BUT an elan is like a lovely petite lady: the more you cuddle up with her, the more affection you get back: some call this karma. it?s the same everywhere: lot?s of folks overestimate their prowess; those of us who were fortunate, once worked on racing cars<<<<<<<<<<< elans (most of em nowadays) are racing cars and NOT meant for everybody and they take more much than just simple passion --------------- plus luv ?em or leave ?em -----------it?s real simple ----------- cheers 36/4982 (my new engine i will show very soon; the crank, clutch etc. are now at the balancers shop!!!! yupee!)

my new engine i will show very soon; the crank, clutch etc. are now at the balancers shop!!!! yupee!)

When I got my crank / flywheel / clutch balanced, it was also balanced with the front pulley which was so far out, I had to buy a new one
Just a thought in case you didn't include the pulley.

Thank you all for being positive, approached the car with a less negative attitude today, put some fuel in hooked up the Coil and Ign, replaced the Fuel Pump as my new one refused to pull fuel from the Tank !!!, Turned the Key and it fired up straight away, hooked up the Strobe set the Ing for 18 BTDC at 2000rpm and decided that was enough for the day as it was running like a watch.
That is more like it !!

An engine running in situ is certainly a highly pleasurable milstone point to reach.

But you haven't said if you have road wheels an suspension fitted yet.,

Sounds like it will soon be MOT time.

So does anyone know a Classic-Knowledgable MOT tester in your New Forest vicinity.

The start of your therapy was by posting on here.
You've had plenty of encouraging words and tales of excitement to come.
If you make it east to Eastbourne you're welcome to come for a spin, so long as no wheels have fallen off my wagon
