    Hi Paul,

    Hope everything went well with the KIS project and your client was
    happy.  I haven't been receiving the newsletter and was wondering if you
    had had the chance to change my email address on your distribution
    list.

    I am having problems getting my engine running, it fires but doesn't
    seem to want to stay running.  There are a few issues I'm following, one
    is the timing.  I think I have a way to figure  out where TDC is now so
    I should be able to get close enough.  Secondly there is a condensor on
    the side of the distributer that is not connected to anything.  I
    believe it was leftover from a points type setup but if not could you
    shed some light on its' purpose?  Lastly the Ellison throttlebody
    mixture needle, is the full rich setting set with the openings facing 90
    degrees to the airflow or in the direction of the air flow?

    Thanks for the help,

    Randy

    Sorry something happened.
    You should come over tomorrow. We are loading it into the
    container. Here are some shots of the intake system and
    your oil pan.

    I think Ellison full rich is 90 degrees to the air flow.
    Here is the patent. I might be able to come over on Monday or Tuesday
    next week and help.

    He have a new rotor head in  Simi valley. I may have sent him
    your wrong email address.
    His name  is Hakan Langebro.
    He is "dooling" with a pusher project, using the Renesis engine.

Paul sorry I couldn't make it, I had other commitments.  Monday would be
great or Tuesday afternoon also works.  I would greatly appreciate the
help.  I have the carb set up correctly now but still can't get it to
run.  I special ordered a new set of plugs, they'll be here Saturday.
Let me know if I need any special tools, I have the basics, VOM, timing
light and hand tools.

Thanks again,

Randy


We built a rigid space frame around the fuse to hold it in
perpetual turn :) No other way to get the spar carry through into
a 92 inch wide container.

I'll see if I can make it on Tuesday.
