I feel your pain! Wishing you all the best. But the reality in doing what we love is that there are an incomprehensible number of variables in the effort success. You have to chase each one down and that consumes a lot of time. Keep going! Just in case I ordered a case of 914 bourbon to drown our sorrows.



Not a big fan of bourbon, but I have some Whipped cream Vodka and orange soda. (yea, I know.. girly drink.. I like it so screw you!)

I can also bring the band-aids and we can compare our respective injuries.

Last night I got the replacement ignitor installed. Now it fires both coils. Spent time tracking down an issue with the fuel pump. Seems the check valve in the outlet was improperly installed. I uninstalled it. Its supposed to maintain fuel pressure to make the engine start quicker. I can live without it. That brought me to a leak in a hose between the pressure line and the fuel filter. Got that fixed. Changed the DME unit. Seems the injector drivers were bad on the one I was using.


It fired up and died. Twice.

The clutch master is supposed to arrive today, so tonight I will be installing it and fixing the clutch. Tomorrow I will be getting the issue with the engine dying fixed. I think I know the problem.

If all goes well, I will be getting the car inspected Saturday.

Wow! That is exciting. Congratulations on working all of the bugs out. Please post a video of it running so those of us living vicariously will be able to enjoy it too. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif)

Stay with it. RE: conversions; I'm convinced that attitude plays a larger role in completions than experience. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Absolutely chicken! Anybody who heard that video is thinking the same thing as me!

Okay I’ll get in it, but only if we stay under 45mph. Which I’m guessing will occur with the slightest blip of the throttle.
