Greetings Bryan,

I have found that fuel does not flow regardless of the IP setting or degrees on the crank housing. I could only get fuel to flow if I continued to prime the manual primer pump during the whole process and then slowly turn the IP until the flow just stopped and a drop followed after a few seconds. I locked the pump down at that point and called it good. This takes into account that you removed the valve out of the threaded injector pipe, per MB instructions. Using the Baylor method you don't remove any parts out of the injector pipe thus allowing pressur to build up in the pipe and well up in the hollowed area. If you continue to turn over the engine manually, you should get a squirting acion of fuel that takes place out of that pipe. Does that happen for you? Comparing the two methods I found that the Baylor method seems to advance your fuel injection by at least 5 degrees, but the engine seemed to run fine there as well and didn't spew any black cloud as a result. I know others have made this procedure sound easy but I my eyes, it's a pain in the A$$ to do and feel good about having gotten it right. Your drip line must have a curve in it, not straight, and it must face the engine so fuel must travel up hill to drip out.
