Hi Terry, It seems to be a fuel problem, when I cranked it before, it use to bellow out black smoke from the tail pipe before it started, it does not do this anymore, so it appears no fuel is getting to cylinders.

I disconnected all lines from IP and it squirts out fuel from each of the 5 holes, on top of the IP. My question is, how does one determine if its sufficient, and if it has enough pressure?
Even though it comes out of the ports on the IP, its seems like its just a little quick squirt but, it still does not seem to be getting into the cylinders. A friend of mine says it should gush out at very high pressure but wondering if you have some info on this. Also I discovered this morning that the oil was very low, It was leaking out of the filter seal, Relaced, and filled. I added 4 quarts, was wondering if this could have damaged IP.
