Default RE: At a complete loss here

No cuts....but a nice little burn....and I will entertain you fellas

I like chocolate candys...and i was eating one of those hersheys kisses.....well at the time I had no place to throw away that tin foil so I just put it in my pocket.....well as i was moving the plane and all the equipment outside I put my glow starter in the same pocket where that tin foil was in.....Well I took out glow starter and noticed that some of that foil was stuck in there....i was able to brush the majority of it off with my finger.....but there was still a small piece of foil still stuck in there.....sooo without thinking....I grab this tiny metal wire that was on my table....and stick it in the glow starter to get the foil out....yeah i was burned really quick...I threw the metal wire somewhere in my backyard and danced around for a bit cursing while my buddy fell over laughing at me.....the metal wire i have no idea where it is.....but i am sure my lawnmower will find it when i run it over with it....so yeah...thats my story....good call on whoever said i will be back with an injury report

ahh but yes...after the life threating incedent....I got the plane started....but I am having problems getting it to idle without the glow starter in it....I can get it to idle at high rpms....like 1/3 throttle maybe a little more.....where is the stick supposed to be for idle...all the way down?
