Leaks

LP Fuel pump

First thing was to re-work the LP fuel pump, brass fitting removed, more PTFE, re-assembled and a short engine run to test. This time I think I've got it - everything still bone dry, I just need to get another cotton reel rubber mount and it should be good

Coolant

Fuel is all good - but I had a small leak on the coolant system from the bottom hose on the radiator; meaning there was a puddle waiting for me at the front of the car this morning, nose off, tightened the pipe clamps and again, should be good now.

The nose is staying off for a while so I can see everything on the next engine test.
