From your description it sounds like the primary injectors (your secondaries are on the primary drivers as I recall)   are not coming on line (no power?)    Remember that all running on cold start is with all injectors running even below staging manifold pressure.  The secondaries are probably the only ones running since engine dies immediately when cold start is switched off.

 

I did not realize that; and it definitely fits the symptoms.  I knew you could quickly point me in the right direction.  You da’ man!  (unless I find out that isn’t the issueJ).  Thanks.

 

Thanks Ken as well.  Checking voltage to the injectors would have led me in the right direction.  I have been more focused on weight and balance the last couple of days.
