It seems like it has been YEARS since I had anything of my own to post here!
Yesterday my wonderful wife Christine bought me a shiney new Optima for the Ugmo! I ripped out miles of PO "electrical en GIN ear ing", replaced the points and condenser and "jumped" across the fuel pump relay and turned the key! IT FREAKING STARTED!!! The sound so foriegn to my ears that it quite frankly startled me!! I am gaurdedly optimistic about this... I think I will have myself a progress thread! woo hoo!

it was pretty kewl, listening to ugmo run on, what?, maybe 2 cylinders. i love the muffler, or rather lack of muffler! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif) sounds like this (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/ar15.gif)
i proved to dino that i could read a flow chart. just don't let the electrons get near me! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wacko.gif) listen to the force, dino; "use the carb, use the carb..." |

You must walk before you can run. One cannont run into running! I think we need some testing before the ex OH dust down south, Al...
I think is sounds more like a Huey chopper rather than a machine gun... I was able to get it running on 3 injectors before I called it a night. Also, once again big KUDOS and thanks to Paul "Brad Anders for his great flow charts... So good even Shane could read them (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif) BTW Shane, you forgot yer sidescoop and wing! Maybe you could trade Kevin the wing for his syncrometer!

now that ugmo has sprked to life, we need to remove the indignity of that, that, that thing. the side scoop has to go (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/sawzall-smiley.gif) . and we can bury it, unceremoniously (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smash.gif) , with that most ugly of wings. ugmo deserves so much better, now.
a great time was had listening to a long dormant engine cough to life. like frankenstein..."live, damn you, live!" |

I swapped out an injector, and the FI brain and can now say that the UGMO is RUNNING! It starts every time now.
Next project is to mount the new Optima battery in the rear trunk and fix the PO bad wiring. He used speaker wire for everything! Tach, Fuel gauge and radio.... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/screwy.gif) |

This was a great weekend for the Ugmo!! I did get it running and even drove it! Well to the end of the driveway and back. Go to get the battery attached to the trunk!
I dont think I will be ready to run at Bremerton this weekend, but I might be able to show up in the worlds ugliest 914... |

That or some other obnoxious paint sceme... If it doesn't make the trip south, I will pull it into the shop and give it a nice Do It yourself Gulf paint job... Although I do like FLAMES! |
