It has a little sputter but I think its where its on a hill and I havnt filled the gas tank up yet (wanted to make sure it started). Couldn't take it for a test run as to low tires but, seems like everything is good. Don't want to speak to soon but if there is something else it should be minor. I want to thank you guys for helping me with my problem. I was completely lost until I found this forum, really glad you guys take the time to help people. I'll give you the update tomorrow after I take it for a test drive. Thanks again!
Hey good work man. Congrats. I bet you feel good now after doing that work
