Thanks Andy

Just need to sort the injectors issue now, then hopefully start adding all the stuff I got from you, lol

Success!!
It started at about midnight last night, with the aid of two freshly charged batteries and some easy start, it fired and ran under it's own power for 3 or 4 mins.

Ran very poorly though, it would rev (didn't rev it too much) but not very well, further investigation confirmed perished injector seals allowing air in and fuel out.

Does anyone know the best place to get a seal kit for the injectors or a set of injectors that don't cost the earth?

However, the main thing for me is, I removed my engine for the first time ever, rebuilt it (well partly rebuilt it), put it back in, connected everything up and it started and ran for a couple of minutes. Feels great, knowing I've accomplished this

With lots of help off the members on here.

Yes indeed Bazcam, No denying all the very much appreciated help from everyone that has answered my questions and uploaded pictures for me. I do believe I already thanked them all a few posts back.

I was in no way trying to take credit for doing it all myself, I was merely stating that I was pleased with the fact that removing and rebuilding an engine is no longer something for me to shy away from, my confidence in playing with engines has improved 100% and I have learnt loads on the way to completing the task.

However, for those that didn't read it in my previous posts or those that may have missed it.

Once again, for the knowledge, the photo's, the answers to my questions and the parts, THANK YOU!

Ok, it runs!

At least it did last night, still not quite right though. I've replaced the crush washers on the injectors, it now has all four injectors working properly. Think the timing might be out a little though as it wouldn't start tonight.

Got it running last night with the aid of some easy start, left it running to warm up but it sounded like the timing was off just a little.

Is it possible to adjust the injection pump timing without dismantling the front of the engine?

Thanks in advance
