o-ring’d

Got new injector O-rings today. It was a bit of a bugger getting the
new o-rings on the injectors, but fitting the injectors into the rail
was easy with a bit of help from the wd40. Dropping the whole rail +
injectors back on the manifold was pretty easy too. I had cleaned out
all 6 holes with brake cleaner and then greased up with wd40.

The tank is now also plumbed in, so no more green petrol can with vapours everywhere!

On the plus side the engine runs a heck of a lot smoother and quieter.
On the negative the idle still shows too high. Time to start hunting
for electrical issues, it could be the idle is fine and it just the
gauge showing wrong

I think it may be time to head back to doing some actual building otherwise the car will never get done, there’s always be time to sort that later, the main thing is to make sure it will get through the emissions test!
