well i believe if a succesfull test drive no errant parts leaving the car..(and possible doing harm to another person and being deported) means a succesfullrun..any way for those that followed my other post i added a MSD system and a rising rate fuel regulator..but in the mean time with all the starting and restarting of the car trying to sort the MSD system out ( i didn't know that i needed a tach adapter i got one now) but i burned up the starter so here goes more money out i go ahead and spend the extra for a high torque starter a few adjustments and curses to lucas and the car starts right up and screams out of the garge looking for rice burners (mainly civics that sound like lawnmovers) the car screams burns tires in 1st 2nd and 3rd..but its to cold at night to drive 9 pm here in houston with the top down and its misty but it was fun...maybe it will be nicer tommorow..
have a good weekend every one..
 
well i was wrong car still is hard to start..ok gentlemen car will take 3 to 5 minutes to start when cold cold start injector is spraying(new) sensor is new.. spark is good and strong.. once car is running it runs vey well as per previous post charging system is fully charged and good can my timinng be out of wack?? and also once the car is warmed up it restarts easy as in 1 sec up and running?? any guesses
 
You may want to ask over at the World Wide TR7-TR8 club. You don't have to join to use the forum, and there are a couple of real FI experts that respond to questions there.

Thanks for posting that you found the problem. Had a real head scratcher going there. Was glad to hear it was a relatively simple fix as is often the case.
