So far, so good

I’m sitting in my (home) office and looking outside at the gorgeous still, sunny Autumn weather we are having that apparently will be with us for the next few days. Then I have this idea.

So I move the car and pull MYRO out. I can’t resist taking a couple more pics in the sunshine.

Then I get a 12V car battery that I have in the garage and connect it across MYRO’s battery terminals using jump leads. I flick the Master Switch and the neon glows. I try the fuel pump – yup, it starts so I switch it off immediately as it’s running dry, of course.

Then the big one. I turn the key to Mags Both and then turn it once more. The starter kicks and briefly turns the engine. OK, it’s what you would expect, but that’s the point.

My wiring, which was all done from scratch don’t forget, has passed its first big test. I won’t know for sure until there’s a proper battery fitted, the engine starts and runs and the electrical system charges. But so far, so good. That’ll do me for now 😉
