Thank you sir!!!! thinking back to it, that could be a way to help narrow down what the issue is...

cause it could be that the stock relay for the Fuel pump is not getting a signal from the ignition, there fore, no fuel pump...

but when I ran the diagnostic test I could clearly hear the pump going... when with just the ignition on i heard nothing..


if that is the issue, then its just an easy fix... run a new signal wire from ignition source, and run power from battery to a new relay... this would also be a way to upgrade the power going to the system, thus allowing the pump to get a bit more voltage, and flow a bit more..

I was hoping to Make it to the AGM yesterday, but left late due to trying to eliminate something off the board...

getting back into it....

So i'm rebuilding/rebuilt it...

i'm not sure if it will run this time, but even if it does, I dont see myself registering it this year anyways, I have other financial obligations that are IMO deemed more important...

so the car is mostly back together, kinda afraid to start the car, as it still has all the same Compression as before, yet every seal has been changed...

but either way... I'm thinking/hoping it just needs to "break in" so maybe after that it will all work out, if not its the housing/irons/rotors, which I doubt/hope its not..

I pulled the Old RA Super Seals, and they were toast (by doing of my own right foot) and so they, (and every seal) was replaced so i'm crossing fingers it will run... but if not, life goes on, and I might get it rebuilt locally... if it does nto run, I'm gonna go ahead and assume some part of the keg it toast...


BUT!!!!!

onto the pictures...


since I have no Digital Camera, and The Iphone looks stupid in full RES, and I'm getting tired, and annoyed I'm just going to link this to my Facebook album that has been keeping track of pictures for me...

I will say this though...

I purchased and Recieved one of these bad boys

to my knowledge, first one in North America...

(Yes I will need to paint mine)
