    Been having withdrawl symptoms, need more of your videos and personality in my life haha! Hope you've had some rest time in between all the work. This was really fun to watch and feels like something I could do myself (not sure which aspect I would muck up but there'd definitely be something 😅You didn't change the timing of the bangs, just the location of them, but at least swapping leads around is easy!)
    It's fantastic to hear the Essex start easily and rev nicely. Glad it's got all the dinosaurs, vitamins and minerals it needs 😉 Sometimes I think one of the keys to getting work done is having friends around who support you. Thanks for another funny, educational and entertaining episode of Tyresome!

      Luckily I’ve got a few videos done so we should be regular for a while now!
      Unfortunately it was the business of work that kept me away from the channel for a bit! 😭
      As always, I keep the mistakes in! You never know, someone may learn from them! Even if I do keep making the same ones over and over 😂

    Great vid as always :) I spent a whole £29 on my hand made leads. I just started faffing with my Scimitar and found it has an old alarm on that's about 30 years old, the wiring is a mess. Can't wait to sort that sh1t lol

    Good to see the scimitar back.
    Mine is dead dead still. Wont start after clutch replacement. Turns over and immediately cuts out. Load balancer replaced and shorted on wiper mechanism. With smoke coming out of the dash. Now electrics are fucked with the fan not coming on.

      Mine too turns over, starts (with help) and cuts out. I put a clear fuel line before my fuel pump so I could see how it was performing and it wasn't dragging fuel very good (hardly able to get fuel from a jerry can to the fuel pump). Mine has sat for 14 years though so It could still be anything.

      Blimey! That sounds like a bad spot of luck! 😢
      Luckily there’s coloured wiring diagrams available should you need them! 🤓

      @@Soulvex the manual pumps have rubber bits inside that dry up over time when they’re not used I think!?
      You could buy a cheap Chinese electric pump to see if that solves your issue…then go from there!
