Bill,
Some of your postings sound like the issues I had with my 002. I went the ether route when my unit would start and then not start. Believe I damaged both pistons with the ether (had to replace them). I thought I had a compression issue when thinking back the ip fuel shutoff might have been sticking on the sheet metal housing then opening up with the engine vibration shook it loose using the ether. Have you watched the ip throttle arm open up when someone else cranking? Apologize if this has already been covered already, but I have experienced the frustration too when the unit starts and then will not start. Sounds like everything else has been covered.
These are really rugged units (when one has confidence that will start when needed).
Hang in there,
David
