Well I finally got my injector seals on friday. Had little time to work on it over the weekend but did manage to destroy a new set of intake gaskets. I got a silicone intake from Gav I think it was a few years back for the white wagon. Decided it was too much fucking around to put on so sat it on the shelf. Decided that as the manifold had to come off this that I may as well use it. I will never be installing another. Had to trim a bunch off where it fits to the turbo. As it is fatter, I had to accomodate for where the fuel lines ran. I'd say all up I have probably spent about 5 hours test fitting and general dicking around but have finally got the inlet manifold bolted back where it should be.
Also bought and fitted a new walbro. Fuel in the tank was probably 3 years old. Lets say it don't taste good. Now all drained ready to refill.

Anyone know what the torque settings for the inlet manifold bolts are?
Just gotta torque the bolts and hook up a few plugs and hoses and fingers crossed it will be running again in the next day or two.
