Thanks guys appreciate the feedback. Absolutely it was hard to find hence why I had to look so far out haha. I've run into a spat with Prix Cars who were meant to collect tomorrow but had to cancel as they were adamant about the 15cm ground clearance. Lowest point is apparently 14cm at the exhaust. Looks like I'm flying up there I guess. I did a pre inspection with CarInspect and the mechanic was quite impressed overall nothing stood out of concern either. Here's to hoping that's true but super excited regardless.

OK, update time. We finally got it fired up and running!!!!!! We think it was a combination of things but having 4 unhealthy spark plugs was definitely not helping. 😆 Yes, probably should have started there. Once we fired it up, it's having the same issue as what the guy said it was having, where if its idling its OK, and revving is OK but once you rev it and then let it idle again, it stalls.... I did a bit of digging here and came across some robust discussions about after market BOVs with stock ECUs being trouble... which this has, so probably thats where I'm going to start. Really just wanted to say thank you to everyone who posted here suggesting things and helping me out, really appreciate it and its great to be always thinking when I run into trouble there's a place we can come to get some great insights, so thanks everyone.

Much better graph! Battery voltage wise, seems a bit on the low ish side but not terrible. Would be nicer of it had a delta of 0.2V instead of 0.5V Maybe try add in an earth strap between the motor and chassis and check to see if the power cable from alternator to fuse/relay box hasn't degraded -

Well, good news. The fuel pressure situation is a million times better. Please see attached dataz. @Dose Pipe Sutututu what battery voltage would you expect to be seeing? When I'm puttering around it floats between 12.8 to 13 volts and when punching through the hills its about 13 to 13.2 volts. Are these normal values? But yeah, I'm so glad I don't have to dig this fuel pump out again lol. -
Yeah it looks really clean and as SM says below, its very uncommon to find an unmolested one these days. I had a 96 Series 2 in white about 25 years ago! (holy Jesus thats depressing). Honestly, from my perspective, theres not much to watch out for. If you've already done a decent pre-purchase inspection just keep up with the maintenance but the RB25 is a tough bugger. Yeah, AMEN!
