not only was there no calling in sick ... there is much fail.

got basically everything hooked up Wednesday, thursday i routed the throttle pedal wires and OBD inside and tried to start it. this is when the BS started. as far as i can tell, the injection pump isn't leaking, but is sucking air somehow.

i have +10psi clean fuel pressure at the inlet ... but after bleeding 2 injectors and trying to start it, i'll get another huge bubble of air blasting into the tank from the return line. today i need to look for leaks after letting it sit longer with fuel in it and call around to a few shops for ideas. this pump sat 10yrs on a buddies shelf installed on this motor, and had fuel run out, but probably has some dried out o-rings or something.
