Dodgy alternator on the new engine seemed to be causing a few issues so they stuck the old one back on. All ok now. I pick it up later this afternoon after I've slept as I'm currently on a nightshift.

Cannot wait to get it back on the road.

Two months without Vtec............ I feel like a kid on Christmas eve!

It looks like it's been sitting for a fair while in those photos.

Glad it's fixed
