HEH Breathes Again

for the first time in over six months the 16V's engine turned over today just to check the comprsession, which in turn was all good, however I was prevented from getting any further with it as one of the rubber seals on the fuel rail has gone, so it's spraying fuel all over the back of the engine, just go to fit the exhaust manifold, aux belt and fill it full of coolant and replace to fuel rails seals and it will be time to get it running
