Mounting everything...

Started to assamble everything this weekend...Did a lekeage-test by connecting the fuel lines and "short circuit" the fuelpump by using a switch which allowed me to start and stop the fuelpump manually.




To avoid the injetors to be shot out by the fuel pressure I kept them in place by using some ducktape an a piece of wood. The injectors spray-pattern looked good so I assume the work...

Unfortunatly the banjo-coupling on the left side of the fuel rail wasn't tight enough and I could see a small drop of petrol there, I didn't dare to tighten it more so instead I use some "sealing-glue"which I "painted" on the copper-sealing before tighten it which solved the problem. Then I mounted the throttle linkage which did cause some minor issues. It was a little tight between the fuelrail and one part of the linkage but I grinded down a couple of mm which made enough clearence to make it work.


Here is the injectors before assembling them, notice the double Oring sealings, probably not necassery but it will keep it sealed. The fuelpressure gauge will be removed as soon as everything works properly.
