Thanks for all that have contributed.
I'm testing to see where it runs best and will post an update when I've had the best results.
On a side note. I also had start and cutoff issues. The...

Bill, very good point. I was also in the process of checking that. Thanks for the suggestion.
It turns over, but wont start. Using a jumper I can get it started after several tries. then it runs good. The starting spark is orange. running I dont know.
Battery is brand new (optima yellow top deep cycle) . Its fully charged.
I'll check the cold start injector and post an update.

Hi Spittybug, thanks for the word of caution. The battery has been replaced and I'm in the process of replacing all the relays / fuses etc. Unfortunatly the damage has been done in the past, so...
Of all parts that have gone bad, my fuse box mounting tray is fully rusted and rotted away.
