My bother’s birthday today – Happy Birthday Aitch!
After a lovely Easter in York with friends it was back to action today however I couldn’t quite get ‘into the groove’ for some reason so didn’t do as much as I normally do. So I bled the brake lines to get rid of the air in them, fitted the centre arm rest and started some wiring.
Now I’ve fitted the fuel selector I thought I’d continue to fit the arm rest. The console needs to be cut to accept the throttle quadrant.
It’s important not to cut too much away at any time otherwise you’ll end up with an unsightly gap between the quadrant and the console.
Quite pleased with the result and once secured in place it will look good.
Now for a bit of the electrics. There are several places where a join in the cables need to be made. I’ve decided to use Superseal connectors and they are very neat, easy to disconnect and are waterproof.
Each of the connecting pins need to be crimped onto the wire…
and the then inserted into the connector block. ‘Male’ pins are used for those wires receiving power and female connectors are used for those supplying power. More of the same tomorrow.
