I still have no idea why it would not start. I had just had it running outside and drove it to the staging lanes to wait. Thought maybe it was out of gas but I had added about 12 gallons before I shipped it. I bled the fuel system today and it fired right up and drove it to the trailer. Hearing a huge room of people booing at you is really a life low point. Barrett took the heat for me and Im very sorry I wasted their time. Car should have run. Car always runs. Car was on the block for maybe a minute as the auctioneers could not overcome the boos so we rolled it off. They busted their asses promoting the car as a high point of the auction and I screwed it up. This sucks.
