greetings All!

I had 1 or more injectors stuck open dumping excess gas into the oil in the dec/jan 2019 time frame; it was at the time i pulled fuel system apart and cleaned (incl installing new injectors). Filters are new, i also have a clear aftermarket filter under the hood as a visual whilst diagnosing start issues; I have the fuel pressure regulator set at 30lbs with a pressure gauge inline for verification. I also have inline spark plug testers setup so i can verify spark to each cylinder.

From what i remember i think compression test was 130ish on each cylinder, nothing unremarkable, easily within the spec as i recall.

I went back and set the timing per Ron K's instructions.

Hopefully i will be somewhere upto 75% functional by the weekend so i can take a better look at what i have got; I will recheck timing, put 5 gal fresh gas and see if i can coerce her to start with starting fluid. If that does not work with Eric's new MPS i will be very disappointed,

Thanks in advance,
