[T3] It's ALIVE!


Wilson (my '71) lives!!

Turned the ignition and much to my complete
astonishment, it started right up (and didn't
explode)!

I found out a couple things:

1) My fuel pump is on all the time. This is not ideal
of course, but it helped immensely with realizing
that...

2) Three of my fuel injectors were leaking, two of
them very badly. It appeared as if they were leaking
between the plastic top and the metal bottom, in that
seam where they meet. Is this possible? Luckily I had
two NOS ones and one old one that I picked up with a
bunch of used stuff earlier in the week. After
replacing those, no leaks.

I am so incredibly psyched!
