Funny how the younger generations have no fear tearing into a 10,000 dollar engine yet the basic knowledge from the beginning of time escapes them. 
I do appreciate the effort though. 
the fact that they didnt rip motor out and drop in a cummins yet suprises me. Maybe they will,but it would be cool to run it as is.

Interesting perspective from the younger generation. Hey, they are trying, and they have lots of energy. A few years of reading this forum, months of reading manuals and sourcing parts, they'll be talking and sounding like the rest of us here. Keep at it guys. We all had to start somewhere.

In later videos on their You Tube channel they progress further. They had plenty of wiring issues. Spark at the correct time seemed to be the issue.  They also got the 12V conversion sorted out and finally got it running.
