I've posted a few times concerning this problem and tried various solutions. I put gas in the pistons yesterday and it fired over then quickly died. I put gas in the carbs and it fired over and quickly died (not sure if it fired because of leftover gas in the pistons from the previous test though - should have done the carbs first, dumb). This leads me to believe the problem isn't electrical nor carb - either the fuel pump was put in wrong, one of the hoses is cracked and is losing pressure or there isn't enough pressure coming from the crank to run the pump (this one really scares me).
The original fuel pump the motor came with is oil injection, but I replaced it with a regular mixed gas diaphragm pump (one less thing to break and the injection pump was a little suspect to begin with). The electronics on the injection pump were never hooked up - couldt a Murphy switch still running not let the engine turn over because of a lack of oil? I doubt it, but right now I'm grasping at straws.
As always, Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
