Yeah I didn't have much success getting that damn thing started let alone in
last night.

I used a spark plug in a pinch in my old engine and was able to later go
back to a slightly longer drain plug. The spark plug was my last choice this
time as well.

Oh well - I guess I try your other suggestion if that doesn't work -
timesert. Drag!

last night I was angry enough that I thought about pushing the bus the two
blocks to Lake Huron and turning it into Harbor Art!!!!!!
