Got the engine running, for about 30 seconds. And the scavenge oil pressure blew out the remote cooler.
Good news is engine runs and 123 ignition works fine. Bad news... now have to track down why the cooler blew. Thermostat is the Improved Racing type. Oil lines alignment is all correct. Will check next for restrictions in the -12 hoses. If no restrictions in oil hoses, I may skip the thermostat altogether. Attached thumbnail(s)
