Put some squirt and a battery in to my donor yesterday to have a little drive around the yard, pair of mole grips on the steering column (don't have a steering wheel yet) ex race car bucket seat held in with rachet strap (no seats either)

It did not go the way I had intended......

It started which was a good sign .....at first, then listened and thought thats running on only 2-3 at best. Pulled lead No.1 to find the plug in 10mm of water, No.2 was 15mm under the tide, No.3 was the same and No.4 the lead was in bits.
Blew the chambers out with the air line, got soaked reassembled the bits of lead,refitted and now it runs perfectly.

I will now be leaving it alone untill .......
