Got it all back together and turned it on dash lit up then hit the start and nothing. I've got an email into Jim to see what he thinks I should check. I ran it around the block last night. Did try to start it with the kill switch on. Neighbor was with me he asked if there was a kill switch. It's good to have a neighbor who has been into race cars all his life. He started in go karts. He once ran the 24 hours of Daytona. He now has a 1998 race prepared Corvette he runs as a hobby. It is now hooked up to a battery charger.

Cool, hope that is the cause.... If not check for loose wire or bad wire connectors

Email from Jim yesterday..."Are you pulling the brake handle when trying to start?"
I left it on the battery charger all night. Went out this morning and it started right up. I don’t remember if I held the brake yesterday but I sure did this morning. Lots of buzzing in front. The plastic panels rubbing. I thought of lining the area where each panel met with silicone before I put it back together but didn't I would have had to wait for the stuff to dry before putting it back together and didn't want to wait bad decision on my part.

I used a one sided adheasive tape on the skin parts at every point that touches ANYTHING to be safe, rattles and dinging drives me crazy......

ger42: Also getting the fuel air mixture and the idle right will take a lot of vibration out. Just a thought. vr, Lee
