Thumbs up

Okay....I got it running. IP timing was off. Used Haynes Manual drip method to time. Used the jewelers method described in other posts to refit pipes to injectors. Got it to fire up on the first battery charge...very rough at first then it smoothed out. I need to go over thoroughly tomorrow and check for leaks, tighten up motor mounts, injector pipe anti-vibration clamps, etc.

What a relief - I feared the worst. It's going to be a merrier Christmas now that I have it going again. A big thanks to psfred and engatwork for the help. I have learned a bunch from this forum and the thousands of posts.
