    Default The Saga of my VN...

    As some of you know I have been doin a manual conversion on the vn lately, anyhow i finished it this morning and went to turn the key, and well it turned over, but nothing. No fuel Pump Sound, no check engine light on dash, no spark... shit **** **** arsehole... yes i was a bit pissed off. So anyhow i spent the next 6 hours going from one plug, sensor, fuel pump etc looking for the problem, still nothing. **** it, I'll call a sparky, he comes, starts telling me I have wired it up wrong and that I need to take out the whole loom AGAIN and put in a diifferent one and I'm like nah its definitely not that it must be something else. Anyhow he spent an our and a half here and yeah well he found it. A plug wasn't clicked in all the way, can you beleive it!!!!!!!! :b: :b: :b: Like grrrr a whole day waisted for just that!!!!!! **** everything and everyone thats how I felt !



    But on a brighter note, I jacked up the rear end earlier in the day and realised I have a LSD in the car and for the last 4 weeks that i've had the car i didn't know!!! haha like yeah bonus!!!
