Before putting the tank back on, I set up a siphon to see if the injection system needed anymore work. Everything bled easily except the supply pump. Regardless, It started right up with 3 quick shots of starting fluid.
After several minutes of running, I wanted to see if I could observe fuel usage by watching the clear siphon hose. I stopped the engine so I could let air into the siphon to make the fuel level visible. The engine started right back up with no starting fluid.
I was hoping to see the level in the siphon tube go down as the engine was running. It did not move at all ! After a while the engine started to run erratically just as it had acted before all this work was done. I stopped it before it died.
I am planning to remove the supply pump today to clean it out and get it to prime. I'm sure there is still one clog I need to take care of. As they say when it comes to fuel injection, you need to make sure EVERYTHING is clean !
