Walk around and eventual start

What was I thinking of ?? Oh,
AND the fact I refer to the
OIL pump as a FUEL pump as
well - what a chump Eh !
:)Also, the tacho didn't seem
to want to work correctly, It
wouldn't read over 5000RPM for
some reason - I need to look
at it - Flat out the engine
will be spinning at around
86000RPM - Idle is
22000RPM.One day I will
actually get to sit in and run
this thing along a track! I
cannot at the moment find one
that will cater for such a
thing here in the UK without
taking it along to a 'run what
you brung' type Drag Strip
event.Anyway, hope you enjoy
the clipJimPS - the metal gate
frame was HOT to touch after
we had finished :o)PPS - The
word I was looking for was -
Stoichometric :)
