good luck

good luck on running the car. the first time is always the worst one usually. just be sure and remember all the safety stuff, dont fire it up on the ground, always have it up with somebody in it, nobody stands in front of the car. period. get some squirts down to get everybody used to the procedure. you are not there to impress the world, so a full blast the first time is foolish. its way easier to come back later if somethings not right,(seldom is the first time) than to spend months or years fixing it after it rolls or hits something! we always request single runs after a long layoff or rebuild, and dont care what everybody else thinks. it aint their stuff, they aint paying for none of it, so toss off, we will do what we want to do! if she is new to the car, its easier to just realise its just a car, a fast one, but still a car. the basics all apply here. try and pick crew guys that will be with you awhile, and not tire of it after a few times and leave, making you relearn everybody again. good luck. dan

 

First time

Thanks dan, yes i do know what you mean, and no we will not be trying to turn the world,
i have been watching your videos, thanks for sending them,
i did notice your shifter bottle is the same as mine, and i need a end to fit mine so i can fill it,
at the moment i have to remove the gauge and fit my pipe to the stem, if you see or hear anything that will do please let me know
Thanks
Gaz

 

hose me

if i read you right you mean a hose to refill your co2 bottle? goto a welding store and dont tell them its for refilling, or they wont sell it to you. you just need a hose for a soda machine with co2 ends on each end. pepsi machine, right? they have them, but wont sell you it if they think your gonna refill co2 bottles with it.stupid regulations. etc

 

Re jig

Justy had to move the oil filter and make new pipes, body just caught the filter ( bugger )
had to make a new bracket to mount it on
thanks for advice, but i cannot get the bottle fittings in the uk, thread types, so at the moment i unscrew the gauge from the stem and attach a pipe to the stem, unless anyone has a old us gauge
cheers
