I wasn't going to walk so I started her back up. Ran fine...like nothing ever happened... Almost home it did the same thing... I just did limb it in the driveway. Next day started up fine. I put her beside the garage and found out after I did a compression test #3 cylinder was shot.
check it like the man says!!!
