Update on my m1009, day 6 off the ether

Good day all, I am pleased to say that I am day 6 off the ether. I thought my engine was getting dependent on the stuff. I still have a couple more issues to work out with the m1009, but at least it's starting on it's own <mostly> Now I have to let it cool down at least a couple hours before I start it back up.

Every troubleshooting I have done points to the GP relay. I am debating if I should do the Doghead mod or just replace the relay. The wait light wont come on and the relay doesnt seem to be pushing out the power to the GPs.

Also I am in the process of working some OT at work to get the fuel filter and injectors cleaned. That's my second problem for right now. I dropped a bottle of diesel kleen in the tank and after I ran the tank dry, refueled, and dropped another bottle of kleen in there, it's running like a champ, <for now>

I am very appreciative for all the help, advice, and the TMs on here. Thank You
