Default RE: P70 Flame Thrower

My setting for accel1 is back to .175 to get reliable ignition.
I did get several Slow accel failed starts when my timing was not just right plugging the valve back in.
It would spool to about 20K and then abort.
Spool-up seemed to take forever, but I did not time it.
Late aborted landings were never an option with the P70 and it's 7 second spool-up from idle.
Fortunately we have a very long field and I have a very slow jet so you would have to mess up real bad to need an abort.

I spoke to Bob and he gave me a few things to try/check as soon as I get home tonight.
If that does not work I will next day the ECU back in to JC and I have a spare lined up to borrow for this weekend if mine does not make it back in time.
