LOL that part was pretty bad - but I found the first shakedown run much worse!
Did I tighten everything?
Did I connect everything?
Is it going to spit a piston through the petrol tank and my chest in a big fireball of doom?
Am I down on power from what it was?

Been there done that, for some reason after months of non running, even tho it was perfectly fine before hand, you get it into your head its not gonna run. Well done!
