Kieth. Well I put a new fuel pump on it yesterday and that used charcoal canister. Canister was a mistake. But oh well. Should have waited and bought a new one. In any case, it's as bad as it was if not worse. When I get it up to normal operating temps and turn it off. It doesn't want to start. Right after or 45 minutes after. After hitting the starter and throttling it, feathering the throttle, catching it before it dies a few times. I can get it started. And once I do. It idles just fine and all is good. So, I'm done throwing money at it for now. I don't have anymore to waste on it. Going to put the old canister back on and check the CPS to see if it looks like it did 15 months ago. If it does? Then there's a chance it's the flywheel messing it up. If that's the case. I GIVE!!! It just really irritates me (I have a little stronger language I'd like to use. But out of respect for Wayne's site, I won't) that I had finally got all the gremlins fixed on it and it had run great since last September. And now. It's a hunk of lead with Porsche emblems on it.
Let me know though what you come up with.
Randy
