All, I finally fixed the problem I was having with this engine, turns out this issue was much easier to fix than I had anticipiated. After reprogrammig the PS1 board with a reset (PS1 Make) chip I purchased years ago from my local hobby store, then peforming a reset 18, the engine took right off with no issue. But this was a good learning experience for myself, I never realized with older PS1 engines, they will always start out in reset mode.
Thank you everyone for the help.
