Before I put the car back together for hopefully the last time, I wanted to make sure that all fluids and electrics were working as far as I could tell.
Engine oil, Diff Oil, Gearbox Oil, petrol, water and antifreeze – all in and no leaks as far as I can tell.
Now the electrics. Placed the battery on top of the chassis and connected it all up.
Turned the ignition on:
- Side lights and headlights working 🙂
- Dials moved to max and back and illuminated with sidelights on 🙂
- Petrol pumps active and still no leaks 🙂
- Starter motor turns 🙂
- Volts gauge reading 12v 🙂
- Fuel gauge showing 1/8th tank 🙂
I’ve seen enough to be reasonably confident that the major components are OK. So it’s time to clear up this mess and start the final build.
