Hey guys, do I have to go have another baby to get some activity on the list? Geez, there must be something going on. If I have to I will take one for the team and go out and find some likely candidates to practice with, but come on....we must be doing some work on our rotaries.
I <sniff> miss you guys.
BTW, is Tracy back yet? I have my "extra" ECU I need to send in.
All the best,
Chris

Steve,
Thanks for checking this on your set up. I just sent Tracy an email off
line about this. I am thinking that there must be an issue with the
controller, unless he has some other test I can do. I am out of ideas on
things to check at this point.
