Nice to see some life
After connecting the pipes back it was time to turn the engine over again - and what a brilliant feeling as it burst into life. There is no final stage exhaust on yet so it was a bit loud but that's not a worry it's supposed to be loud so everyone can share in my proud achievement :-)
No fan belt yet so couldn't keep the engine on for long.
I bought a new BMW plate to cover the spark plugs, sprayed the air filter with oil tidied up the battery cables.
I also worked a little bit outside to prepare the driveway for stones. The hard plastic sheet is covered with round indentations to allow airflow to pass between the wood and earth - helps against rotting.
Before I lay the stones I'll put down a fibre membrane which stops weeds and also keeps the stones from shifting.
