oo amazing, thanks! When i have time I will definitely have a full dig.

I don't suppose anyone has a wiring diagram showing the following wires: The 12v for the exciter wire into the alternator The 12v switch live into the coilpack/fuel pump relay I assume at least the second one of these comes from the UCH as it need to pass the immobiliser test.

Should there not be a simple switch live to the ECU that should turn off with the key turn?

So cleaned up the alternator earth so you now get >0.1ohm between the casing and the earth strap. The problem where the ignition stays on (engine off) has now disappeared. Ran a new earth for the coil pack relay and expected everything to be perfect but again, key off when the engine is...

I stripped back my ph1 172 wiring quite aggressively but I did it last, once I had everything back in and how I liked it. I just traced wires back to their nearest plug and cut the wire short, then put some heat shrink insulation around the stump. Obviously without knowing your build I don't...

I don't suppose someone knows when leaks should become apparent? Ran it up to temperature a couple of times and not seen anything out the bottom of the bell housing so I might have actually got it right first time! touch wood.

People have made them in the part for the group-N timing, IIRC that is a 9deg r****d of the exhaust cam so you could just made a very minor mod to the CAD model and get it CNC'd as you say.

Thanks for posting the bleed process! i probably should do this with mine rather than just fill it up and hope for the best! tbh that method has always worked in the past. Regarding the shafts - look up Peter Withers on Facebook, he's the guy that I used (also i think the person that posted...

looks very clean! welcome!

It should be just a case of specing the length and end form and getting them to mock them up. Are you planning on running them along the same routing as the hard lines as you may need something more substantial holding them to the body. Flexible lines will want to sag more than hard lines. You...

Well, if anyone else reading this has some wiring diagrams for the ph1 showing where the switch lives from the ignition barrel go that would be ace! :D

Is there a relay bank in the car that houses a main ignition relay do you know? Sounds like a good start. Yeh already got the hazard switch on my list of things to try.

I'm also running a gen90, not sure there is cross over with that... Is there a main ignition relay somewhere I can investigate? A sticky relay sounds more plausible to me, perhaps that's just me hoping it's not the UCH as that sounds like a headache. Also, I'm sure this is completely unrelated...

Bit of a weird one! But went to run up my track car this evening to find the battery completely dead. Not a sausage. My nephew had been playing with the switches so I assumed it was just him playing around and I had left the ignition on by mistake. No bother, stuck it on charge for a bit. Then...

No worries, I'm pretty sure I've sorted it. I wasn't sure even which one the fan plug was, since I dumped the fan a while ago during the strip down. Planning on doing a quick short of ECU pin#69 ;) to ground to confirm the fan comes on then it's another hurdle overcome!
