Started much better with the static timing, fixed all the air leaks etc. It ran much better and actually idles! but its running on 3

Was thrown a bit as the AFR was 15-16:1 at some points when the engine was a little warmer, so i richened it up a bit and it wouldn't start. Cylinder no1 had flooded.

Plugs 1,3,4 were wet with fuel and very sooty (rich as feck despite the afr reading)....

Plug no.2 was spotless, no soot and no fuel.... injector no.2 isn't working its batch injection so its not the ecu, must be the injector OR injector loom wiring (oem ford).... but cylinder no2 was an air pump hence the AFR, think its going to be pretty rich when i fix the injector.

What required fuel settings do people normally use? mine was at 8 to start, the calculator puts it at 6.7 with 440cc injectors and a 13.1 target.... too much?

The hunt continues. Was pretty relieved that it ran though!

Thanks all

Rob,
