Fidelity101 is on a distinguished road
so I put about 2 tablespoons (I have a "flavor injector" for a needle) of premix oil in each rotor housing and gave the plugs a rub and put some starting fluid in on the throttle body and it fired right up nearly then smoked a bunch of oil out and I drove around the block a few times and it ran like a fucking champ and then I pull in my driveway and let it idle for a while the water temp got up to 150 degrees and stalls and I cant get it to restart and continue running by even using the same methods to get it started.

BUT I was able to get it started, barely, and then it ran like ass, ( pulling the plugs, cleaning them, adding more oil in the chamber, starting fluid ) I had to give it a lot of throttle for it even stay running and it didn't do that very long, it sounded like it was getting choked.

the fuel filter is new, I get even pulses when de-flooding.

it sounds like it wants to start better with the massive mounts of oil put in the chamber.
