So after a good month of messing around cleaning wires and grounds ad the engine compartment and getting the engine back together I tried starting. My starter relay was messed up so I took it apart and fixed it. Cranked a couple times and it wouldn't start. Plenty of fuel pressure and no fire. So I'm sitting there about to get irritated when I think hey.... what about the cps.... sure enough I didn't hook it up. Plugged it in and hat sucker fired right up! After a.few. minutes of smoking and adjusting itself it cleaned up, leveled out and started idling beautifully! I'm very happy :-)

 

Congratulations! Feels good, doesn't it? Time to wheel it.

 

Accidental double post...

 

Still have drivetrain body and interior. Basically doing a mini restoration

 

I can relate, i'm doing something similar to my '90 bronco 2. Already redid the cracked heads, working on brakes now. Still interior, suspension, bodywork, paint, underbody. Going slow though.

 

Ooh I forgot brakes. I can't wait to put an 8.8 in and start doing fab!

 

Sounds cool, fab is fun.

 

Its a long way from stock with a long way to go!
