Rented the pressure tester and found 2 leaks. One is the hard pipe that goes into the upper intake. I used an o-ring that I had on hand, it was thinner than the original. It didn't work, so now I have more work to do.
Is there a PN for that O ring? I don't have the original to match it up to. Someone before me had sealed it up with gasket maker.
I did get a few drops from the throttle body. It was minor, so I will do that down the road.
I need to put the knock sensor back on, then may try and start it. I didn't think that would make a difference the last time I tried.

When that system is hot and under pressure, that drip will be a spray faster than you can say I just should have done that when I had the damn thing off.

Ha Ha, thanks for the advice. Neighbor stopped by while I was working on it, said " good thing about a British vehicle, you will always be working on it."
Need help with a leak was appropriate for this thread- head gasket, freeze plug, throttle body. The fourth was my fault.
Short work day tomorrow, so hope to try and start it. Knock sensor didn't get put on.
