    Wink First Start Paul2stl build #9122

    Hopefully this link worked. Not sure how it came out. It took a bit to get the fuel up to the fuel rail and primed. I had a fuel leak just before the I shot the video that I fix so had some air in the line. Once the Coyote idled down it was pretty quit. I didn't show my excitement in the video to much, just not that type of guy, but I was so happy to finally start her. This car is going to be f@#$ing fast. Cant wait for the first go cart.

    Way to go! For me, the sense of relief was so strong, I didn't show much emotion either. Wait till you go-cart. Try not to smile, I dare you.

    First Go-Cart of #9122 Roadster

    Here is a video my wife shot and edited. This was after a good break in on the engine and fixed a few leaks . The Speed Hut oil pressure sending unit stopped working. Also I was sent a celsius reading temperature gauge. Guess I’m calling Speed Hut to get replacements. Did get a mil light come on after the break in and few starts. It turned out to be a coolant issue, I’m guessing it was a air pocket in the system since it was a little low. Reset the light and hasn’t came on again after adding some coolant. Other than that has ran smoothly. This thing is freakin fast!! Enjoy the video!
