Ok Folks,
Tracy did it!!! I bit the bullet and drove the motor on my old pickup down to Tracy's and he got it started in about 40 minutes! Now that's after I spent 3 weeks. What we found was that the injector connectors were not seating correctly. The pins in the injectors were not in the clip but along side of it! Thus sometimes I would get good readings or symptoms, then bad readings or not good enough to start the engine.
Tracy also found a few more squacks that I'll repair before I try to start it again. I will be soldering the wires on to the injectors so no more bad connections. The new injectors I purchased came with a slight difference in the connector, and I though I made it work (NOT). I have too much play in my thrust bearings, and I'll clean up some changes in the wiring of the injectors. The timing of the engine seems to be off, So I'll recheck that. I'd like a exhaust pipe support to reduce the vibration of the pipe. Then I should be ready to go for more engine runs. I'll be adding my Ivo Prop, instead of the club prop, and other things I need to have complete before I install it on the plane.
Thanks Tracy
