I've been rebuilding the front end for a while now, periodically cranking it up to let the oil stir around, and the other day it wouldnt start at all. It acted as if it wasnt getting any gas so I pulled the intake hose apart and squirted some gas in it to see if it would fire off and it did, but ran real rough. As I was scratching my head wondering what was going on, I realized I hadnt put the intake hose back on and probably was running bad due to no signal from mass meter. Well as soon as I put the hose back on it died like you turned the key of. I tried to start it back up and nothing. I unpluged the mass meter and it will crank but runs weird as expected. I dont want to buy one before I know that it is bad. Any suggestions???
