      Well, I had my first engine failure and landed without incident.  I need some 
      help trouble shooting this one.  On takeoff at FPR, at about 800 AGL, the 
      engine lost most of its power.  It was a sputter, followed my an almost shut 
      down.  It reminded me of the time I was setting up my fuel flow on the RMI 
      and ran a tank try.  I check the boost, it was confirmed on, mixture rich, 
      and switch tanks.  No luck.  I jockeyed the throttle and mixture on the down 
      wind, just to see if I could get more power and still no luck.  I landed rwy 
      32 with no problems and after a few sputters to taxi clear, the engine 
      completely shut down on the runway.  I tried to restart on the ramp and the 3 
      year old battery also decided to quit.
      My plane is normally hangared, right now I'm doing my CFI at Aviator and the 
      4 has been left out for a week with half  tanks.  I thought it might had been 
      fuel contamination or moisture, but the full cup samples I took after the 
      long push to the ramp showed no problems with the fuel.  No samples were 
      inspected prior to the flight.  It took about a minute to land and I was 
      thinking that if it were water in the line it would have cleared and fired 
      back up, but I've also heard that fuel injectors are more sensitive to water. 
      Where to start, first thing tomorrow, after I order a new battery, I'll pull 
      the filters and purge the system, but other than that I don't know what it 
      could be.  My system is an 0360, Bendix injector, and airflow performance 
      boost/filter setup.  I do have the RMI fuel flow transducer between the 
      injector and flowdivider/spider.  If anyone has any ideal where else I could 
      look, please advise.
      Thanks,
      Carey Mills
