I'll be there late in the morning. I just got back in from the activities in downtown Atlanta.

Fierofool, did you eliminate your cold start injector?

Actually, I had it refurbished along with the injectors.  It was the one from the old engine.  He said he was surprised it was working it was so dirty, but the car would start with just a bump of the starter.  I'm using the refurbished injectors from the replacement engine to go back into it. 

Got the poly cradle bushings in today, so they're there as soon as the cradle's ready to go back in.  Right now, it looks like the only thing to do is start bolting everything back onto the motor.

If it still starts as easily, you should try unplugging it.  It may not have been working.

That was my thought, too.  At least it'll plug the hole.

Mine is gone.  No regrets on that.

Not needed with the 7730, but if anybody needs one, I have 3 or 4.

Just to clarify, this is an internally-balanced engine, right?
