I find the "injector failure Switches" convenient during the warmup to test
the operation of the injectors just like the primary and seconday plugs
test.

I chose not to implement the "injector failure
switches". I don’t know if there are any statistics on it, but I suspect
injector failure is an extremely rare occurrence. On the other hand if
one did fail I'd rather fly the plane and troubleshoot the problem after I'm
on the ground. But that’s part of the advantage in going the Experimental
route - build it the way you want it.

In the event of a primary or secondary injector failure, the affected
injector set can be switched off and the cold start switch used to richen up
the remaining injectors. This as per Tracy's instructions. I haven't tried
this, and hope I never have to in the heat of battle, but there it is.
