Tim: The junkyard engine had 70psi per cyl and was returned (I ate the labor) . The original was rebuilt after throwing the oil chain, only the rod bearings were seized, but we put in new rings too. Throttle linkage has been checked and rechecked and is free and clear. The fuel lines are where they belong, but I am going to go over them a third time just because I want that to be the prob. And yes, it does act like resticted fuel, my only fear is that it is a failure inside the IP. Cam timing has been double checked and is right on. Start of delivery (IP timing) has been set by the drip method, which I hoped would be close enough to drive it somewhere to get it done electronically. Maybe it's still too far off??? I am living a nightmare....
Any other advice??? I guess I might have to pull the IP and get it checked out next, huh?
