Default First start!!! and a question

i started my engine for the first time today with a few minor/beginner mistakes. first i was fliping the prop backwards for the longest time and then after about 100 flips of the prop i realized my line to the carb had a hole, and then i got the thing started and i realized that i could not shut it off cause my rod to the servo was too long and i could only take it down to half speed[X(], lastly i did not have the prop properly tightened so it broke a little of my spinner. but in the end i had it running and attempted a little tuning.
my one question tho is when i had it at full speed the nuts that held the rod stoppers (i think that is what there called, there the little things that connect the push rods to the servos) would rattle off. since this is very dangerous what would u guys suggest I do? plz and thank u.
