Racing Beat did a real crappy job of installing the fuel injectors.
Kind of strange as they ignored everything we did over the
past 18 years to address this issue. Actually they ignored everything
we ever did :-)

RB was using the Mickey Mouse Paul Yaw injectors with filters which have
their draw backs as well.

We nearly lost the TTC airplane not to mention Dan on Thursday to a possible
massive fire when we were running it up. Safety wire was used to hold the injectors in alignment with the Paul Yaw filters and the mechanic left it off. Probably did not
think it was necessary.

The injector popped  out of alignment with the Paul Yaw filters
and sprayed raw Menthol all over the engine. I ran over and pounded on the
canopy to get Dan to shut it off. Partly my fault for not noticing the
missing safety wire.

The proper way to do it is put all the injectors in a line and use a fuel rail.
The fuel rail is key to holding it all together.
