    Thanks for your quick come backs! Twisted Steel Performance...You mentioned about fuel draining back .... I did put the clear rubber hose looking for bubbles and there were no bubbles after four day and stayed full. Can I assume that would indicate that I have no fuel drain back at this time...

    Problem with starting

    Sorry for the delay. A bronchitis has crept in. I can see why you're using so much power. Those motors must really draw the power. Sounds like you've got that figured out to a 'T' and is working fine for you. Thank you so much for taking your time to help me! I just need a couple more...
