few updates, xf is now running ive also fitted another power valve wich has helped it run better aswell.

few pictures of how it looks at the moment.

removed the old power valve to find someone had put wire into the holes where the fuel goes through restricting it. runs 100X better with that removed

today i did a few things to the ed, touched up a few bits of paint in the bay, cleaned the tickford rocker cover with degreeser and put it back on the car, cleaned the over spray off the build plates i was going to do that a few months ago :oops: and took the exhaust sheild off and gave it a clean up.
