Moonlight Performance
Well fortunately the rails don't leak now that I added the Loctite 565 and let it cure overnight, plus cranked down on them while tightening harder than before.
The good news: THE CAR IS RUNNING! I was able to get it started. Took a long time to fill all the oil lines and build pressure (which I did with spark plugs removed).
The bad news: It's running very poorly, barely stays running, and I had to bypass the fuel control circuit and hotwire the fuel pump direct to 12v in order to get it to run at all.
So I have some work cut out for me, to figure out why the stock fuel control circuit isn't working. I do have the fuel pump controller in place and it was working fine in the donor car which ran and drove and had only 63k miles on it. I also have to figure out why it's running like crap when it does start up. I have the FPR set to 43psi while the car is off, which I understand is correct?
I'll post a video later but need to get back out and mess with the wiring more after lunch.
