Don't ask me how I know.
Mike I got to ask...... I can see some residual splatter but not much with the cover off....or am I missing something

wouldnt be the first time...

Not that big of deal, unless you let it run. I sure don't think you need to remove the starter fuse, just take the key out.


I have done this to check primary chain, just bumped it. Also started it once part of some other trouble shooting. I wouldn't do it in my living room, and if before Memorial Day, I probably wouldn't wear white.
