So the wire swap solved my lean condition issue, but now I am having trouble getting the engine to start. It turns over fine, and feel I am getting spark because it will "cough" but not stay engaged. It will also end up starting once in awhile, but it is the exception.....i have to really work the throttle.

Is it possible I am not keeping enough fuel going during start? I ask as I saw a couple threads on this. I also was told I didn't need to reinstall the Subaru fuel dampener on the return side line. Wonder if that could be the issue?
