Default It Runs

Just like the title says. Got the car started about half an hour ago and shut it off again. Then did the same thing a couple more times. Couldn't really tell how well the car was running based on the amount of time I had it going because the RPMs went way up (had the throttle linkage pulled back on accident ). A little bit of smoke came from the carb but that's probably because a bit of gas got on it when I put it in with a funnel. Burnt out the starter but I don't really care since it needed replacing anyways. I'll quit ranting but needless to say I'm pretty stoked.

Thanks a lot for everyone's help. This would have taken a lot longer without ya.

lol, i feel like you do right now. My car has been disabled for 3 days, and i finally got it running again today. I was so relieved and happy, but thats the fact that it's my daily driver, and i didn't have a car to drive.

Haha I'm stuck with hitching rides and driving Mommy's car for now too. I'm yet to get an interior, wheels, tires, brakes, glass, and a paint job. When I'm driving the Parental's cars it's either an Audi a6 or a Honda Pilot though. You get to drive a GT500. Pretty sure you're the lucky bastard [8D]
