I'd like to thank those who gave me the advice for the ATF info
 

Thanks! Big thanks!

Got it running on the second try, I always chuckled a little when it came to people telling stories of the fire department being called, but DAMN. Nothing like seeing a giant two story wall of smoke smack into your house and get sucked around the sides. Probably lost a year or two off my life from inhaling the smoke...End all, I probably ended up injecting ~4oz into each housing, turning by hand.

Using ATF also gives a second benefit, it shows you were EVERY SINGLE exhaust leak is...evidently, I have one around the turbo. :o:

It's been running/smoking, but the smoke has started to die off, I'm letting it idle for a bit longer, then it's going out for 20-30 minutes more to charge up the battery.

So in short, if pulling fuses doesn't work, ATF is the way to go. Going to have to change the oil today too I guess. Damn I'm happy.

Glad we could help

Heh, the drive was interesting, the smoke hadn't quite died off 100%, people were looking at my car like it was going to catch fire...about 4 or 5 trips to the redline and there's no smoke!

Great! After using ATF, a good startup time is about 2-second before nightfall :)

FYI: He was using a few table spoons of the ATF to fix a way heavy flooded motor. The ATF "treatment" is a different thing (and generally not recommended by most long term rotary mechanics).
