the rest of the floor seems OK so on wards and upwards i'll just keep plugging away and it'll all come out in the wash. need to get it sorted for the MOT and on the road

How much oilpressure @ idle 750 U/min warmed up engine?
Your picture show us "zero". So you have to clean your oil pressure sensor ?

Well done on the mot Ray.. it's much easier once it becomes a rolling resto and you can legally drive it about. Yeah, it's been standing about a bit but looking at the mot history it's only failed on track rod ends and windscreen washers in the last 11 years so that's pretty good really. Enjoy putting some miles on it
