Still not there though. Won't start or even try unless I put a load of oil into the intake pipe.
Then is hits hard, and either aids rotation but not quite runs on its own, or randomly, does run with lots of black smoke.
Can't currently get it started again. But it's late and I am tired :-)
Had my engine expert over the other day, just got off the phone with him, he says my compression is terrific. He thinks it's the injector.
But it's new, and I just did an air burst test, it pounds out a beautiful 2' long mist in 3 directions, with authority. I don't think it's the problem at all. Though I haven't seen a video showing a proper lister injector firing, I can't imagine one firing any better than this one does.
What's next? Thoughts as to why I have to start with a shot of oil?
I think I will go over my timing one more time, as I can't believe fuel quality, compression or injector are the issues.
Will try that spray onto the flywheel trick and double check timing.
