I assume yours wouldn't start either? I figured it might at least start on one rotor.

Last night I tried to better set the base fuel pressure without the engine running. The Aeromotive FPR doesn't hold pressure long after the pump is turned off so I had my wife watch the gauge and note the peak pressure during priming. It was ~60 psi at first time around so that might explain the excess fuel. I got it to ~45 psi and called it good enough.

I'm certain I flooded the rear rotor. I squirted a 1/4 teaspoon of 2 stroke engine oil into the both rotors and cycled the starter until I just about drained the battery. My intake and garage still reek of fuel though so I don't know how much good that did. Tonight I may put the spark plugs back in, keep the injectors and fuel pump disabled, crank the engine, and see what happens.

At least I got the display set up. I won't know if the speed or odometer works until the car is moving but everything else appears to be functioning properly. The only issue is I can only display fuel level in liters.
