  1. Torture is going a bit far... Did he/she get it out after that? ?
  2. The coil is new, so I didn't directly check it, but I did directly wire it to the battery. I will give it a better check tomorrow, but I am coming around to thinking the igniter is the issue. Absolutely. I have actually mentioned you should always do that in a previous video and totally forgot to do it this time.
  3. This week I top up all of the fluids and finally try to start the 680g.
  4. The inertia switch actually looks like a better idea, as others have said that the extra brass fittings can fatigue over time with the vibrations and fail.
  5. This week I try to burn the whole car to the ground...
  6. Good to know guys. For now then, I think it can stay where it is, as I just need to get it driving first, then I can worry about a few old bushes later ?
  7. I was wondering how it all comes apart. I will need to do some more research about how to do it properly, as opposed to my usual way of blindly undoing things until it comes apart ?
  8. In this episode I finally do something about the suspension and ride height of the 680.
  9. In this episode Benny gives me a hand to bleed the brakes and I finish off the exhaust tips.
  10. Thanks for the tip. That will be pretty easy to splice in, so I will order one.
  11. In this episode I have a go at TIG welding a stainless steel exhaust for the 680g with a bit of help from Benny, aka The Mechanical Stig.
  12. I thought mine was the original, but one of my viewers identified it as a 240K wheel. Either way, I like it so it can stay.
  13. In this episode I put a few finishing touches on the exterior of the 680g and some of them may be controversial.
  14. In this episode I go back and tidy up a bunch of loose ends on the 680g
  15. I managed to pick up 3 of them from Zac yesterday to try, so I should hopefully be able to get one of them to work.
  16. In this episode I attempt to sort out the birds nest that is the wiring on the 680g
  17. I sanded the whole thing with a foam block. I am the same, that I don't like sanding with your bare hand, as it is uneven.
  18. In this episode I try my luck at cutting and buffing the 680.
  19. Haha, you are the first person to actually acknowledge it ?
  20. I didn't bench bleed the masters either, so I realise now that I am bleeding the lines, but the piston of the master has not been bled. I will try to get a power bleeder and an assistant and give it another go.
  21. I was about to link that, but yes that is how I have set it up. I know the catch can has 'IN and OUT' points but with the filter on the top they will both be IN. I have not fitted a PCV though, so I may look into that to see if it is going to be an issue with out it, but I can probably find one.
  22. In this episode I swap around the brakes and have another go at bleeding them.
  23. In this episode I tackle the rest of the diamond stitched trim in the interior of the Z.
  24. I did try it and it locked up sometimes, but it took more inertia than it should, so I am more comfortable mounting them vertically as intended.
