    Moving fast again now mate and its running happy days . Can't wait to see what colour your going. That wiring loom looked quite simple to be honest. Wiring is not my favourite either but looks like the bloke done a really good job on it . Keep the videos coming lad . Roll on next week. Dave

    Hi Matt, I love the channel and love the variety of content... been a subscriber for a while now... keep up the good work 👌 PLEASE can you paint the floor around the Car ramp / Lift it's spoiling all the hard work you done building your workshop 😂 😂

    That's awesome news Dan... it lives!! but I would make some sort of bracket if you intend to keep the umm fuel tank on the roof also make a lid for the tank or each time you brake you will get your screen washed by petrol🧐😂😉
    Seriously though your ingenuity never fails to amaze me but it was the perfect setup to test the engine👏👍
    Looking forward to the next instalment and knowing you the fuel tank will be on the bonnet this time😎😆😆

    Fantastic stuff! You’ll probably want a ratchet strap over the fuel tank on the roof, you know, for safety and stuff 😆😆😆

    Boat fuel tanks for outboard motors work well for a temporay set up. They are only about £50 for a 3 gallon one and ideal/safer for fuel system bypass/testing

    Great episode mate! One question though. This is the 3rd one that shows for me "Episode 8" in the title description. Is this just me or is there something not working? I think episode numbers are a huge help as youtube seems to always mix up the episodes when watching them back to back.

    Mate at this point you might as well just shove a standalone ecu in it haha. Probably easier and would look a lot better in the end without the standard dizzy and leads etc.

    • @DanChambersDAC
      @DanChambersDAC  10 місяців тому

      😂 this is a budget build. It doesn’t have a dizzy, it is all electronic ignition as it’s a modern engine. Fitting a stand alone ECU wouldn’t clean the bay up any more than it is 🤦🏼‍♂️
