Fire up!!

Finally the engine is alive! the recent weeks have been really busy at work, leaving not so much time for hobbing and delaying the fire up. But at last the final bits were assembled and after a few mods to the fly wheel the engine run for first time.

The progress from the previous post have only been a new flywheel and the preliminary exhaust manifold. As you can see the engine is fixed in a very crudely manner, which will be changed to make it safer to operate and extra stuff around it (gas tank, etc) properly secured. Obviously the white cable will go away too.



I will make a better and longer video and post it after everything is adjusted. It is mainly tuning the carburettor settings to achieve the full performance that hopefully is in it.
