Frustrations set in.. prematurely? (SAME 84 start issue)

Hey Ed, Rob,

Thanks for the insight. I have been tracking my movements in 1/8th turns at a time. So far I am 1/4 turn from the starting position and I have gotten more power, and cold start was a touch easier. Today I am meeting up with a fellow which has the proper tuning harness needed for the DPR to be tuned with a voltmeter. This still may very well be a static adjustment issue, though the previous owner had said adjusting rich did help the start problem, it never fully cured it. I'm hoping he had a vacuum leak on top of the adjustment too lean causing this issue.
