Time for an updated "final" list. I know I said this before, but (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

What "coolant" sensor do you use?
I have always been curious as to how head temp is adjusted for in the coolant portion of FI programming. |

Still performing basic checks. The fuel pressure should be 43.5 psi--looks good on the gauge.

The temp gauge now is set for air-cooled head temps. I let it warm up a bit, running for about 15 minutes, and the head got to about 250°.

I need to work on my exhaust ducting. Its a long way to the outside.

And my aluminum dryer ducting is pretty fragile--and leaky.

And it gets chilly with the garage doors open, even on a warmer day like today.

Still no real response on the stock temp gauge.

Since everything in the EFI seems to be working, I worked on making the wires neater and tied down.

When I checked the tail pipe clearance after yesterday's hot-cold cycle, it was back where it was, and too close.

I used a jack to brace the rear of the heat exchangers, and then "leaned" on the tail pipe to induce a little bending.

I then adjusted the muffler bracket again. Better clearance (at least for now).

@bkrantz Are you going to install a chrome tip? I had a stock chrome tip stretched on a pipe bending machine (Ben's) and then he welded to nuts onto it so I could secure it to the tailpipe. Looks stock and I love it. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)
