Philbert Is ALIVE!!! with vid
Just thought that i would put a little message in here to let everyone know that Philbert took its first breath today with the EJ22!!! I dont have the
rad in and there is still a fair bit to go but after all this time playing with it its a good milestone.
Got some body parts on the way from the bus stop and things are moving forward again.
I'll try and get the video footage on here of it running

Yeah a huge thanks to Adam couldnt have done the troubleshooting to get it started without him.

Don't run it too long without water, the waterpump seal won't like it very much.
