Engine Running !!!!!!

Finally she runs!!!

The plan for today was to check the cam sensor rota which was had swapped to make use of the changed position from the 2000 model and to check the crank sensor setup to see if that had changed in the 2005 design. With some diagnosis from Brian and some comparison and logic deciphering from John and Tony, we swapped the crank position disc over from the 2000 model, moved the engine to Top Dead Centre and then positioned the Cam session rota to a position half way between the 2000 and 2005 model locations. It would seem there are quite a few differences between the 2000 and 2005 models. We had experience from Brian around the differences between the 2000 and 2004 models but Kawasaki have changed the generator, cam rota sensor position, crank position disc and probably a few other items I have probably forgotten about. Any way after a week of uncertainty we now have a car that runs, and have warmed it all through for some considerable time to check for oil and water leaks, of which there are none. All we have to do now is to put all of the panels and other items together and try to do a test of everything before the race in 3 weeks time.
