finally, after 8~ longggg weeks efgiar is driving again! had a few problems incluyding, a leaking waterpump (heater pipe 0 ring), squeel at start up (dry starter) massive vibrations over 80 (tailshaft... wtf?) running rich and shuddering when cruising (both caused by a ****** map sensor, yes the shuddering too) but after all those its back, driving again and i can feel the extra pulling power, gets to 100 noticably quicker then with the old motor and so far so good. i wanna thank everyone that helped and came along, specially grechie, josh and mark who were allways there to lend a hand and thro in some spares (tailshaft and map sensor
 ) so i should be out to most of the cruises from now on, heres some pics of me and mark at pier 35 the other night.

Great to see it's back on the road! Hope you can sort out those other issues. It'd be a good feeling to be back behind the wheel after all that time!
