Week 9 - the Build

A bit more action this week as my cable ties arrived. A bit of general loom tidying work and chafe protection on the brake pipes.



 The brake pipes from the master cylinder to the ABS unit and to the forward stbd. calliper needed securing so a bracket was made and the pipes secured to the underside of the scuttle.


In these photos you can also see the wiring loom secured to the bulkhead enroute to the stbd wing.This was all unravelled then reravelled with the extended washer bottle pump wire as the washer bottle swaps sides.

You can also see I've connected the brake vacuum hose to the servo. It reappears in the engine room.

One of the great mysteries of the week has been trying to work out what a plug on the offside front of the Fiesta is for. I hunted high and low on the engine any everywhere to no avail. Eventually worked out it was for the aircon pressure switch. Amfey wont have aircon!
