So close ..... Yet so far !!!!!!

No good pictures guys but I thought as a few follow my project thread, that on Friday I managed to get everything back together on the Scooby. Charged the battery, removed plugs and charged the Fuel pump to ensure there are no leaks in the Fuel system...................... before turning the car over to get Oil pressure as it hasn't started in 7months and had an oil change aswel.

Shortly followed by a friend who was watching for Fuel leaks saying "turn it off", so I turned the ignition off only to find that one of the Injectors was leaking after 5 minutes of removing the Rail and fittings, I found one of the O-rings was a squished YES A KRISSYB mistake. (remember I work on the railway and have no mechanical training LOL)

Replaced this and repeated the process and again another small leak but from the Fuel filter fitting and upon inspection I had bought the correct bottom fitting but had not bought the top one so that stopped play. as it was the original fitting that doesn't make a good seal as its a female fitting.

We are now going for a repeat procss when the fitting arrives Tuesday but apart from that eveything seems good, and I will update with pictures and videos on my project thread next week.

A few pictures of today that I managed to get:
