    Thanks!

    One of my biggest worries is the fire as well, I always carry a fire extinguisher on board no matter what.

    I am bringing the motor to some winter night work meets, so I am hoping other members can give me a hand with the confusing carb.

    I plan on redoing the plugs/wires, and maybe adding insulated caps to the plug wires to reduce spark issue.

    I have figured that in addition to high quality plug wires, heat-shrinking them will add another layer between them and the raw metal.

    Any thoughts?
