In this case, it was the fuel injector ground wire. The fuel injection system on the Merc EFI batch fires. In other words, 4 injectors fire at the same time. cyl 1 and 3 are on one side of the motor, and 2 and 6 are on the other side. Fuel injectors 1,3,2 and 6 would spray and then 5,7,4 and 8. Although your answers are good ones, here are the grades.

JIM = F+
BIGFOOT = F +

LMAO, this was fun. Tell the question JIM>

MAYBE THEY WERE VACUUM OPERATED, AND WHEN YOU CHANGED UP THE CAMSHAFT OR INTAKE/CARB THEY LOST VACUUM?
