    Do not give up on this. Take a break maybe. But no giving up. The regret down the road will outweigh how you feel right now

    Thanks guys lol, I think tomorrow what im gonna do is probably get ahold of a nice jump box so i dont have to run jumpers from the tacoma over to that new battery. Also gonna get the clutch bled and see if disengaging the clutch will help at all. I also did notice the only fuel fittings that were leaking were the ones with the adapters that had crush washers; so im thinking of just removing the crush washers and running just the adapters to see if that seals it up. I think because the fuel is leaking, it doesnt have the proper PSI to push to the injectors, which is most likely why it acts like it wants to fire, but wont.

    whaaaaaaat? noooooooo, but you're the legendary ChadsPride! haha, I envy your ability to stay on the forums lol. I have a bad habit of burning myself out after a few years then just ghosting for awhile lol

    Sounds like you're already doing this but anytime I find something daunting in life, I break it down into smaller chunks of effort and keeping knocking those out.

    Good luck bud!

    so I think im gonna have to redo my brake and clutch lines, the clutch master flare is leaking unfortunately. I guess that's not such a bad thing since it's fairly easy to do these lines

    thanks! I got new injector seats and o-rings coming in this next week along with extra 3/16 copper/nickel brake lines to redo these lines and do the flaring correctly this time to try to get these things to NOT leak lmao
