Close…

But, not quite there.

Ok, I have everything in (built a wiring system, bled the brakes, added fluids to engine, tranny, rear end, fixed a bunch of little quirky things) and it is almost going.

Have spark, compression, and fuel, yet I just cannot get it spinning fast enough to kick. I have seen this before with other rotaries that have sat long periods. In the past, I have drug behind a truck and spun up the engine until they catch. After that they seem to start up with the starter. That is my next step, just not in time for tomorrow’s practice.

pull the plugs and put some MMO in it for good measure!

Nice to hear it has come together. I can't wait to see that thing in person!
