just need to get rooflining down really, which is easy, just remove plastic trimming sunvisors etc.. then 3 clips at rear of rooflining then just pop it out of any rubber, door seals etc.. then should be able to get to ariel

well, today i set about tidying up the loom, i move most of it behind the inlet manifold, i pleased with the result looks tidy now, but went for test drive all was well for 10mins then engine management light came on and it kept wanting to stall itself, i had this problem before when fitted powerbox soo i image its throttle position sensor but i will take a look 2mra, and when got back home its now decided it doesnt want to start, also had this problem before lol, anyway few pics...
Image
part of the loom out, so i could re-organise
Image
now a before and after shot soo u can see its tidyer around powerbox area
Image
and after.... (annoying big blue plug now hidden)
