Ha Ha My first start was at the Gas inspection mob. They told me to put some gas in the tank on the way over ( on the back of a truck ) and when I get there he will check for leaks and inspect for compliance ??? The 351 started straight up and leaked water from every hose. Once tightened and sealed the 'gas man' proceeded to inspect the set-up. he couldn't check the fuel line, the car was too low, he couldn't check the emissions because the electronic ignition was jamming the electronic sensing machine. So he passed it ! Ha ha ha. The first start is so nerve racking...I had an audience. There will be now many start-ups as visitors arrive. ENJOY !
