Gentlemen,
Tonight I capped the fuel line to the = Weber,=20 started the engine and run it dry.
Placed the stethoscope next to the #1 = primary=20 injector, mode switch in 0, pressed the store switch and nothing, I = believe=20 the injector is stuck in the open position
With the fuel pump off, mode switch = in 1, cold=20 start switch on, press store and injector start clicking
The above is from the trouble = shooting section of=20 the EC2 manual
 
Is it safe to assume that the = injector is=20 sticking or dirty.  enclosed are the pictures of the pumps and = the LP=20 regulator, all below engine block level; hose (red insulation)going up = to the=20 Weber, plugged; picture of fuel rail and primary injectors buried = under intake=20 manifold; stethoscope placed next to #1 primary injector. =20 JohnD
