I will use the torque wrench next time Smile

I was thinking if i should torque it down but i decided to use the impact gun because i have never had a problem with that.

Replaced the flywheel key and it started on the first try! Smile

Took it for a test run and it ran great but the exhaust got red so im thinking it needs more fuel.

Thanks for the help =)

Check that, check to make sure it's not flooding (running too rich).
