<VV> Binion EFI update

[NicolCS at aol.com]

I've spent the last week getting the Milt Binion 140 EFI motor in my '65  
Corsa EO 'vert and finally got it happy a few minutes ago.  A fair amount  of 
troubleshooting revealed three (three!) broken wires leading to the #6  injector. 
For whatever reason, the copper was corroded at the injector connector  and 
both were broken off there (hidden under the rubber boot) plus one of  those 
same wires was broken about an inch away from the injector connector under  the 
harness covering.  To make it even more fun, the schematic that Mr.  Binion 
published in the Tech guide and Communique is slightly different than  this 
car's wiring.  That's a little odd since this motor is the exact motor  shown in 
the Communique pictures, all the way down to the "goof" patch in the  upper 
shroud.  I think he photographed this motor (it's highly detailed)  but published 
the "latest" schematic rendition.  The hardest part  about working on this 
motor is that it's impossible to find a tool if you put it  anywhere near the 
all-chrome engine.  Tools just blend in!  I shudder  when I think about working 
on the engine outside in bright sunlight.  Now  all that's left with the job 
is to button-up the undercar fuel system; it  probably wouldn't do to drag the 
electric fuel pump along attached only by wires  and hoses :) 
Happy day!
