Well it's running, pretty nice too.
Doesn't shut off ??
Ok either we missed a wire or the iginition key is bad.
Idle is still rough, so bring down to full idle and it dies.
We can fix that later.

Tomorrow it gets it's first run, he's gonna do my lawn
Then another oil change, want to make sure we get any remaining grit from the honing. Cleaned it as best as we could, but I still would rather not risk it.

I had a B&S key I bought for my tractor and didn't use, I reused the original on mine.
I sware it was steel, and moon shaped.
It's belt drive to the deck so hitting something shouldn't lock it up that bad.

Thanks for all the help and support.
