    The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread

    I was able to start my da70 tonight. Holy crap, that was the best experience I have ever had with a new engine. Full choke for about 6 flips and I could hear the fuel getting to the carb. Engine popped, so no choke and about 1/4 throttle and about 4 flips and she was purring. Nice and...

    Extreme Flight 94" MXS
