Thanks Dan. The Black Bird will be a star at the next gathering. The fit and finish and attention to the little details is as nice as I have seen on any KR.
What are the rest of you with Ellisons using for a prime and start procedure? I am envisioning something like you use on a fuel injected engine with a fiddling of various pushings and pullings of throttle and mixture to leak fuel into the intake, but I have never seen a written procedure before.

Today, Brian Kraut flew up in his very nice Mustang. The wing fairings have been finished and painted. The plane is looking very nice. We had a great visit even though I could not get the Black Bird to start while he was here. After Brian left, one of the guys at the airport helped me clean the spark plugs and that did not help, so we resorted to the ether that Jerry got yesterday. That got it running real quick. With a little fiddling and turning the idle mixture the opposite direction, it seems to be better, but I still don't know if it will start cold. If the weather is good tomorrow, I will mess with it some more. It seems a little better now, but still not ready for prime time.
