Smooth runnings

Now that I'm passed the "I want to take a sledgehammer to it" stage of this project and have driven the car up and down the driveway loosening up the callipers - it looks like I could do an MOT once I've solved the induction & air filter position and then refitted the bonnet. I bought another set of green top injectors off eBay - but only one of them worked properly but thankfully I only needed one to get the engine running smoothly again. I'll send the spare set of for cleaning at some point in the coming months ready for springtime installation. I knew for sure that the #4 cylinder was firing because the exhaust wrap started to steam and bake on! The other three headers had baked on ages ago - I didn't notice at the time that fourth one wasn't heating up and steaming. I've started to fit the intake pieces now so I can find the best and most convenient place for the intake filter - remember I have installed an 3.0 S2 intake on an 2.5 S motor
