    Ok the first start on the 8BA in Richard's F1 pickup didn't do too well. After a long delay the planets aligned and we were able to get another session on the pickup. So, finally, once and for all, can we get it running properly?

    Thanks fellas. We were a little shocked at how well it went. Stepping back and taking a methodical approach was good. Having the carb rebuilt and pre-proven on my truck was crucial I think. Thanks for watching the video.
