  • Today we finish up all the required jobs to get the Ecotec Miata ready for its first start. We make and run new PTFE fuel lines, relocate the EVAP to the trunk, install the intake manifold, sort the PCV, and even add an oil catch can. It's finally the moment of truth ... so why won't it start?

    I get that same excited reaction every time I start my car in the morning! Not because it's some amazing engine swapped self creation, but because it's such an old, poorly maintained $500 shltbox, I can't believe it when I turn the key! It's a great feeling...

    Congrats! Glad it was an easy fix.

    • @mostlyuselessgarage
      @mostlyuselessgarage  Před 8 měsíci

      Didn't feel good at the time but in hindsight it's probably one of the easiest fixes possible. Yay!

    Man how can this type of videos have under 1k views. Awesome camera works and edits. Highly entertaining and feelgood kind of video. Keep up the good work!

    Awesome video. I really appreciate your editing to help build suspense and relief in the end when everything went your way. 10/10 well done and congratulations on getting your roadster running.

  • @philjones5728

    It was worth watching this just to see your elation and relief when the engine finally fired up. Absolutely brilliant - well done. So pleased for you. All your effort and trouble-shooting was vindicated.

    That was awesome! I have to say you have amazing narrative. Every video is like a story.

      Thank you so much! It's something I strive for and it's great that it hits. You rock!

    Did you consider removing the fuel pump assembly when cutting the barbs? Probably would've been safer and easier, and less chance of metal filings falling down the holes.

    • @Bbeavis
      @Bbeavis Před 8 měsíci +1

      Oh, and huge congrats 🙂

    • @mostlyuselessgarage
      @mostlyuselessgarage  Před 8 měsíci

      Now that you say it, that seems so obvious! Initially I wanted to use a tube cutter on those ports but there wasn't enough clearance, I even thought about bending them but didn't want to risk breaking. I hope that fuel filter does it's job 🤞

    @14:46 I was like "WTF, did you just flip me off :'D". Had to go back multiple times until I realized what was going on. :D

    Not so useless after all, yeah? 😁 Congrats on first start! Sounds great. So many more views deserved, keep it up! Your enthusiasm is a great motivator.

    After receiving a couple no name eBay an fitting kits, I honestly Believe brand name kits are a waste of money, beyond anything actually made in the USA. They are all coming out of the same factories in China and Taiwan and the quantity is pretty good

    • @mostlyuselessgarage
      @mostlyuselessgarage  Před 8 měsíci

      That's great feedback. Reviews were good for Evil Energy and I contacted a couple CZcamsrs that reviewed them and they were happy in the long term. 👍

    Congratulations! I believe you're in Canada right? With a roll bar and swapped engine, does your insurance still provide you full coverage? If so, which insurance are you with? Great job on the swap 🎉

    • @mostlyuselessgarage
      @mostlyuselessgarage  Před 8 měsíci

      Thx man, yes I'm in Canada and insured. Shoot me an email if you wanna chat about it.
