    did anyone read the comments under the video???

    "I read on another forum the engine wasn't actually blown. Supposedly, the owner discovered one of the intake tubes had become disconnected. I guess one of the clampes vibrated loose. When that happened the engine got too much air and lean out. A severe lean condition can cause an engine not to run, and in a worse case burn a piston. They said it was an easy fix."

    I was just thinking that, I don't read comments about car videos on youtube because they piss me off. I figured it was more along the lines of a fuel or ignition problem. When the motor does fire it sounds fine it just won't idle. If the motor was "blown" it would not sound that good when it did run. But now that you post that comment, that would cause the problem we are seeing in this video.
